Spell Speed VS Spell Damage for Black Mage?

[Super_Bee_Brian]

Hello everyone!

Soon, I'll play my third character, which will be a Black Mage. I asked advice from my friends as to how I should play as Black Mage and one of them told me that prioritizing spellcasting speed may actually be more important than spell damage. Is there truth to this? What do you think? Also, any other Black Mage advice is appreciated.

Thanks.

Personally, given your past threads, I think you should focus on the feel and rotation of blm first. Worrying about stats below lvl 70 is largely pointless because you'll need to put those melds on your 70 gear. When you get to 70,ask again.

Right now, there's a few Stat priorities, depending on what exactly you're going for. When you get versed with blm, come back. I have a fair amount of experience with it (it's my dungeon main), so I can help some after you get your feet wet enough.

He needs to focus on a lot more than that. He proudly claims to have scammed players for gil. I pray to The Twelve that he's just a troll.

He's claimed that in quite a few threads, so.

How many times do I have to tell you people that I don't scam players! I'll repeat what I said before.

I DON'T SCAM PLAYERS. THEY WILLINGLY GIVE ME THEIR STUFF OUT OF THE GOODNESS OF THEIR HEART. I SIMPLY HAVE THE PERSUASION SKILLS TO ENTICE THEIR BENEVOLENT TENDENCIES.

There's a difference between what I do and actual scammers, you know.

Yea, actual scammers are smart enough to not gloat the way you do.

You're a manipulator then. Still not something to be proudly bragging about. I also find it hilarious that you are posting another thread asking for input on these forums considering your attitude to the responses on your tank post.

Honestly I'll just be glad if this means he spends less time playing my job.

Wait no this means I might get a group with him in dungeon roulettes, crap.

Right. You're a con artist. That sounds more regal than being labeled a scammer. Happy now?
