I think black mages have a problem with button bloat. ST seems to be a very awkward rotation and spells fail a lot due to unfortunate timing. to be completely transparent, I only played it up to 50 in ARR and just now picked it back up, and I just don't remember the timing and sequences being so tortured. I'm really hoping it's my failing and that one day that proverbial lightbulb will go off in my head and all will be great with the mage. I just don't know.


I'd really like to have fewer buttons to keep up with, though.
