BLM Post-Patch, and where to go from here.

I think if people are throwing out suggestions, they need to give ones where they "fix" the class but do not allow non-standard to come back. It seems clear the dev's goal was to eliminate non-standard, so any suggestion of bringing it back wouldn't be realistic. If we want to make suggestions that are meaningful, think on ways to fix the rigid rotation that don't involve bringing back the very thing they are aiming to eliminate.

Our job is to express our concerns, which for many people is that the new changes make the class unfun to play, their job is to come up with a improved class. While looking at the changes it totally makes the impression they wanted to get rid of the non-standard lines, but the official statement was to change mp regeneration to help with lower levels, which also just failed.

Of course when creating something big like an entire expansion you have to take shortcuts left and right and here they failed in my eyes. So with the highest amount of copium, I would prefer them to roll the changes back until they come with a meaningful rework and not leave dedicated Black Mage players with this version for possible 3 years until the next expansion.
