would be nice if they could add Comet as a skill for black mage

My suggestions:
Befouled Ley Lines: Foul refreshes the duration of Ley Lines.
Burst: Requires Thundercloud, refreshes Thunder on the target and causes damage dealt by the Black Mage to make Thunder tick an additional time for 30s. At the end of the effect's duration, all damage dealt by Thunder during Burst's effect is dealt again. 90s cooldown, 2.5s cast time
I'm still open to the idea of Thunder adding some type of debuff (either magic or physical) on the target. We want Thunder to always be ticking, and I think an associated debuff has been long time coming for this skill and idk why they haven't implemented this yet. I also think there needs to be a dire upgrade to Umbral Hearts because isn't the only time we're using Blizzard 4 is during our opener, or, if mechanics permit you to stay in one spot, when Convert is back up? It seems like such a waste of a major spell they added for us during Stormblood. Maybe they could make Blizzard 4 an instant cast after Blizzard 3? I also liked the idea of boost to crit% per heart, or it can even be a boost to spell speed per heart. I like that they upgraded our Fire potency and procs, and don't get me wrong, those were much needed, but i also feel like that was taking the easy route to put a band-aide on the class.
Um... I think normal rotations for BLM includes Blizzard 4 though? If we don't use Bliz 4 we won't have Foul ready at the end of some rotations and using Thunder 3 alone won't recover all mana in UI phase and cause major DPS loss.I'm still open to the idea of Thunder adding some type of debuff (either magic or physical) on the target.

As with all discussions regarding MP for Black Mage, it depends entirely on the mana tick.
I think BLM needs a trait where the game automatically waymarks the bets spot of Ley Lines for every fight anytime the cooldown is up.
The changes to enochian have rendered it pretty much a useless button, since you will not drop it unless you drop astral fire or umbral ice, in which case it is only as inconvenient to bring back up as AF or UI. The only time at this point where dropping enochian is more inconvient than dropping AF/UI is when you somehow drop it before its absurdly short cooldown wears off. It would be better served as a trait in my opinion.
