Thread: Suggestion to BLM change going into 7.0 (Job LL)

I have started playing BLM in Endwalker since the kaiten removal from SAM and hoping to not have to swap jobs again.

In the LL it was noted that they have removed mana ticks from BLM rotation (good). Now heres the problem... on the LL it saids only Umbral Ice spells regen mana.

I agree with the chang of removing the mana ticks since it was annoying to deal with.

I have a suggestion to fix this problem while not affecting standard game play for all other players.

Instead of adding mana regen to only Umbral Ice spells casted, I "Strongly" suggest adding mana regen to all spells used under the influence of Umbral Ice phase.
1. This will keep non-standard rotations alive (my main objective for my complaint)
2. It will give more leniency to casuals and new players to have mana regen on all spells in Umbral Ice phase not restricting them to worry about mana regen as well as Thunder III debuff. And in the LL it is seen that you only get mana regen when you are in the Umbral Ice phase not affecting Blizzard III transitioning from Astral Fire phase so again leniency on mana regen.

The blm will have the naturaly mana reg to, like every other class has it.
It is normaly blocked in the fire phase and even the regeneration buff skill dont work in the fire phase.

There shouldnt be any blocking in the ice phase. It was only increased up until now. What gave the random high regeneration in that phase.
It is now simply be changed, that ice attacks will now have a fixed number, how much it will regenerate the mp again. Probably similary to some skill of the Paladin or DRK.
Your surrgestion sound simply like the system whe have yet.
And i dont even see any problem there. In the Trailer was the ice phase keeped very short to. I think after 2 ice attacks had he switched back to fire. More or less the same number, whe need now for the ice phase (sometimes 1-2 attacks more).

In Dawntrailer they said on the LL (that only ice spells in Umbral Ice will regen mana on BLM and getting rid of mana regen from ticks)
In which I suggested that all spells in Umbral Ice should regen mana in Dawntrailer instead of only ice spells.
In non-standard rotation we only use paradox and skip the ice spells as a whole so it is a large problem for majority of the players who actually mains BLM.

This way it will keep the standard rotation as how the devs intend it to be for Dawntrailer while keeping the flexibility in the job it has atm.

Mao gives thumb claw ups for suggestion. Is good!

Mhh.
All rotation i know (standard) use ice spells. Otherwise can you not obtain the ice shards for reduced mp cost in fire.
And i mained the blm to for a long time (think about it to switch to drg). And i didnt heared, that only ice will reg mana.
Only, that ice will now have a fixed regeneration number, so, that its not based on the tick.
I can not image, that the mana reg will completly stopped. Because every other class has a naturaly mana reg over time to.
It doesnt look to make sense, to remove that completly from blm.
What the blm has yet was a increased power of that reg. And that is, what is changed now.
