BLM Utility ideas!

[Hanayumi]

1)Manawall!: Bring back Manawall but change how it works, something that could be on par with smn and rdm rez's without actually rezzing cause lore. So how about a kinda auto holmgang! So can be casted on anyone but only 1 up at a time, the buff lasts like 10mins, while having a cooldown just as long. The shield activities when the person's hp drops to 1hp and prevent it from dropping any less for a couple seconds, maybe 3-5secs. Could toss on a tank for an extra mitigation cd or better yet on healer to prevent them from dying!

2)Magic Resistance Debuff: This one is so so, as I personally believe we should just get rid of all the resistance debuffs, but if they're here to stay why not just add to BLM. Think would be best on the single target thunders, of course would need to reduce the potency on all of BLM's moves but with healers dpsing easily now, its simple way of adding raid utility to BLM.

Also curious if anyone else had any ideas? If not BLM then how about SAM who's also in a similar situation.

You don't need utility when you have top DPS numbers.

blm is the sam of casters but we do it better

[Kitfox]

Utility suggestion? More damage!

Doing 7k doesn't mean a thing when the other guy does 6.8k and the dps check is 5.5k

1) is too good as a chasing tool for any high end raid content.

Magic resistance debuff?
What a ground breaking idea! How come no one thought of that??

Only utility we could make an argument for is some kind of debuff paired with Thunder. Magic would make the most sense as it would increase our own personal dps. I never want to see someone ask for a BLM raise. Please delete your BLM if you are pushing for this.

It woulnd't. DPS would be lowered so that the Magic Down puts the Black mage at the same spot.
