Yeah, I should have been clear. The Blizzard II was all done either unbuffed or with only Umbral Ice stacks (which don't boost Ice damage); and the Fire II casts were interwoven with Blizzard casts to remove the Astral Fire buff. Blizzard III when almost out of MP, then Fire I to remove the UI3 stack, back into Fire II (which is why I was lucky to get the extremes as quickly as I did, takes forever to weave like that).
