Okay, I promised myself that I wouldn't post in this inane thread, but this here line is the straw that broke the camel's back. For the vast majority of classes, the combo buttons light up in the order you are supposed to press them. All you have to do to get a combo right is literally hit the blinky lights. That's it. No guide necessary. Doing the bare minimum of reading the tooltips of the spells you get as you level up should be enough to perform at least passably.

And about the topic as a whole; why the holy heck does everyone treat giving or receiving advice like such a drama-filled minefield?

I leveled BLM to 50 in ARR and promptly forgot about. Didn't touch it all through HW and was well into SB before I decided to start leveling it again and in one of my first or second dungeons someone pointed out that I was doing the rotation wrong. Did I freak out at them? Did I take it as a personal attack? As a slight on my honor? Of course not. I said "Sorry, it's been a while." applied their advice and finished the dang dungeon. Because it was the mature thing to do. Receiving, processing, and applying constructive criticism are necessary life skills; the sooner you accept that and learn to do so, the easier life will be for you.
