BLM needs more damage

[Zerathor]

Look, I know this gets said to much, often by people who don\\'t fully know this job, but this is kind of a fact right now that blm and sam need higher damage.

Our damage is good at the moment, but it\\'s equal to smn. Why on earth would you bring a zero utility "this job is only here to do damage" job over another job that performs equally, with higher mobility, that can also resurrect? Pure damage jobs need to have a damage edge over any other utility dps, or they aren\\'t worth having.

BLM is a very fun job, but the game\\'s current state is making it an uphill battle for them to do unending coil, and it\\'s pretty sad. This raid is pretty much going to force me to shelf my favorite job.



Give blm more damage square, please make them a viable option.

What Blms need even more is: to chill...

there are more than enough threads f.e. the one with 59k+ hits and 680+ answers...
3+ new threads a day about the same, meanwhile well known, problem are just exhausting.

Bards didn't chill until they became OP and had a thread with over 300 pages while they were already a good job. Why should BLMs chill while they have been the worst caster to be picked since 3.2? :v

Considering how relatively quick the response was to WHM, WAR and SMN when they bitched and moaned, I can't exactly fault people for continuously beating the dead horse. Look at Monk. It's been two years now and the devs have done precisely nothing solving their problems. In fact, they balanced Dragoon's BotD management despite no one even asking for that. So...

blm need even more call outs, posts, threads etc.

so the devs see how "desperate" blm are atm

Hpw do you know your dps? Can you give an example or two

We'll chill out when devs actually recognize this problem. Casters in general have been in a bad spot since 3.3, but now blm is by far the least valuable job for a static, and that needs to change.

We do not need to "chill", did you and your fellow smn's when you needed fixes?
Blm community is normally the ones who do the less complaining, it has just got to such a bad point that is why we are more vocal now

Another example: WHM before 4.0. The glaring balance issues were immediately identified, lengthy discussions were had (often VERY heated), and positive fixes followed. As long as the discourse is constructive, these threads are helpful.

I would agree with you 100%, as long as they do not turn into a insult fest and off topic, lol
