BLM feedback.

[Reinhardt_Azureheim]

What is the "abuse of non standard" to you? You keep saying that but don't actually give examples of how it somehow sweetened the "poorly designed real black mage".

Apparently shortening Fire lines is "unintended gameplay" and "abusing bad game design", when the basic idea of "use as much Fire IV in a short time as possible" has been upheld the entire time. I find it unbelievable to call the use of one of your oldest skills, Transpose, in clever ways and skipping certain spells sometimes for fight or cooldown alignment "abuse".

What is actually sad though is how much the job had to be gutted (Umbral Paradox, Sharpcast management, MP recovery rework, Thunder rework) for them to return and put their tinfoil hat on and go "see, I told you the job is bad if you remove all the QoL that is intended to help you deal with new fight mechanics and be creative in your gameplay, it's a fundamentally badly designed job" like wow, no shit.

The irony in their and other people's negative stance to "nonstandard" and how they are happy bordering on delusion that it got destroyed is that the steps that were taken to kill nonstandard (which wasnt even that crazy of a gain anyways) actually hurt Standard BLM equally and only made the job HARDER for beginners, NOT easier.
