Thread: Please reconsider 7.0 BLM changes

- nonstandard comes with just as much urgency if not more than standard, standard doesn't put you into situations where you have literally 0 seconds of free time to waste, your procs matter less and your timers matter less than they do in nonstandard
- nonstandard is still about maximising your fire casts, it's just maximising the amount you do compared to everything else too
- nonstandard isn't the meta, standard is, hence why it's called standard and not non-standard; meta things are the standard, that's what a meta is
- nonstandard is more in the spirit of BLM because the job has always been about optimising your freeform rotation to match a fight, standard is not optimising your rotation and is putting it on rails
- nonstandard can also optimise your damage when stationary, and even render you LESS mobile than standard depending on the line you're doing, it's not something that suddenly turns you into a ranged physical dps necessarily

- finally, you're talking complete and utter nonsense here, i can only be astounded by your sheer confidence in your own opinion and how persistently you can keep pushing it despite you being the only one who thinks it's reflective of reality, if this isn't bait you are a marvel of ego

hope this helps
