Please Fix BLM

[syndemeitri]

BLM is fine.
It has more then enough mobility options and the high skill floor is part of the jobs power fantasy or better the balance to its raw power.
For the macro problem, macros are designed to be bad for combat purposes.

I see i never knew they were designed to be bad. May i ask why? Because a skill like Shukuchi feels like it needs a macro to work properly. I can't even imagine a reason why devs would intentionally make skills like these that clearly need macros to function properly, remain broken and not fix them.

They designed the macros to be bad to prevent partial automation of the gameplay.
You can circumvent some of the drawbacks like the missing of the queing of skills by repetition of the /ac command and targeting commands but it's mostly only useful for ground placing or to sidetarget partymembers, enough to make aether manipulation very useful, you only need one macro for every potential party member you can target for that.
