How is BLM?

[Tint]

Good morning! Please explain what I am missing. Why is BLM considered easy to learn or even moderate in difficulty?

It's easy to learn because the rotation is really simple.

Blizzard 3 > Blizzard 4 > Thunder 3 > Xeno

Is the hardest part to remember. That's the ice phase. Fire phase is basically just counting to 3:

Fire 3 > Fire 4 > Fire 4 > Fire 4 >
Fire 1 > Fire 4 > Fire 4 > Fire 4 > Despair

And everything starts from the beginning.

And to make it easier for new BLMs: Everytime you move (more than 1 second) just cast Fire 1 afterwards and then start counting to 3 again with the Fire 4s. That's not optimal play, but makes it easier to maintain your buff. Optimizing comes later...
