1.2K is an average darklight+relic crit against titan. I've seen a relic (non+1) + demagague BLM crit for 1.8+ on titan, now THAT was an eye opener. Meanwhile the BLM in full darklight and a relic was only critting for 1.2K so we couldn't figure out why or how that came to be but suffice it to say 1.2K on a BLM is not that big a deal.

In regards BLM vs BRD it should be pointed out BLM dps is highly variable and inconsistentdue to it's reliance on thundercloud and firestarter procs to freecast thunder IIIs and Fire IIIs wheras BRD have a pretty consistent, and i might say, very high DPS output. If yo uare being out dps by a BLM you are probably playing BRD wrong. Ask other BRDs what thir highest DPS skill rotations are and try to find out wether you are using your skills in a wrong order.
