    Why do you think turn signals blink?
    Why do you think ambulances/cop cars have blinking headlights/flashing lights?
    Why do you think school buses have blinking lights when they stop to pick up kids?
    Why do you think big semis with heavy loads have blinking lights?

    I could go on...I mean the list of blinking lights over solid lights is enormous. You are much more likely to notice something blinking than you are to notice something thats not blinking. If this weren't the case, then derp none of the things above would blink. Why else do you think the blink is so annoying? Cuz its more noticeable..it distracts you.

    Course it doesn't bother me so I'll conclude by saying:


    Blink or solid it accomplishes the same goal. Get used to it.
    They got blinking lights, to make them distinguishable between the SOLID lights all over the street.

    Your statement is "Lol not even true"...blinking lights are only more noticable when used AMONG solid lights.

    It's about the context, in your example this does not apply to what is going on in FFXIV...

    Why you think traffic lights are solid lights? Cause if they would blink it could cause confusion as to which colour is active right now and which is not? Which is what has happened here, blinking lights cause confusion as to wether your combo is active or not, if you happen to watch at them right when the blinking is "down"...

    Think before posting...
