Current blm question.

I took both into O1S yesterday and, surprisingly, BLM felt more mobile than RDM. Triplecast is up for every Levenbolt. Between the Lines and Aetherial Manipulation are great for the stack mechanic, and you have Swiftcast for repositioning. As long as you plan your movement CDs, thou can keep nearly 100% uptime.

RDM was RDM. It was easier going in blind, insta-res was helpful, but Displacement was difficult to use. When he Downbursts and slightly changes position with ice on the floor it's pretty easy to derpflip straight of the platform. The radius is barely larger than your jump, which I learned the hard way... more than once...

As far as numbers, BLM was 200-300 DPS over RDM when I executed them well, but having Embolden up for every other Trick Attack in a group with SAM NIN BRD probably made up that difference.
