    As for the Tier IV spells, just because someone else lacks an understanding of condition dependent execution and mutual exclusivity doesn't make my argument any less valid.
    It's not exactly hard to press Leylines first and then use Between the Lines if you move too far. Everything you need to use for Black Mage can fit on two hotbars securely and comfortably, and you should already be ignoring Freeze. I get it that some jobs could use skills that toggle into another skill like bard's straight shot/refulgent arrow, but we don't need a mass consolidation on all jobs.

    As for the tier IV spells, I never said your argument wasn't valid, I just lamented that it was dumb. There's a difference. Black Mage already has a simple rotation that doesn't require you to jump through a whole bunch of hoops already, there's no reason why we need to make combo buttons because some people find it too hard to watch two hotbars while at the same time they can barely watch one.

    What they could do is make Freeze actually useful and work Scathe into something more than what it is now, possibly an oGCD that has a magic defense down debuff or something else to give it more of a purpose.

    Personally, I felt that Leylines should have been a circle that moves with you, but we all know the devs were never going to do that.
