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...
Thank you, Tint & Frizze! I will get over my fear and try out the BLM job this weekend. I have been secretly wanting to play it for some time!

The biggest part that confuses me is Fire 1. It's like, why do we stick that in when we have access to F3 & F4?
