why does enochian exist for black mage

[Zerathor]

I guess a better word is busy then

Compared to litterally all other less busy more mobile casters its a bit cumbersome
I still enjoy it
And this threads got me practicing it more
But still

I mean, if you find other caster rotations less cumbersome, you're playing those jobs wrong. It's just much more noticeable on blm to know you're doing it wrong. Like smn for example, whIle easier to pull off due to mobility, has a far more complex proper rotation. Blm rotation is the easiest in the game, but it's challenge comes from adapting it to a fight, where as other jobs the challenge is doing the rotation the right way. However, if you can't see your dps, it's easy to know when you ruined blm rotation, but smn rotation you could easily do horribly wrong and not know.

Like without parsing, maybe you didn't notice how far you drifted your aether, and your wyrmwaves aren't lining up with party buffs, or maybe you aren't getting 11 wyrmwaves off each bahamut. Maybe you're not clipping your DoTs right with party buffs, maybe you aren't properly double weaving using r4 procs, or holding dwt/bahamut for aoe phases, ect, ect, ect. Smn has a TON of management that you could easily not notice, but you still "do the full rotation".

That's part of the reason I like rotations like blm, it's blatantly obvious when you're doing it properly, without help of 3rd party tools. You know when and where you messed up immediately.
