First, I have to say that I took elements for my XML from many other XML sources already posted here. I'm sorry for not referencing by name, but chances are if you had a BLM XML file up before I posted this I at least took a look at it. Most of this XML was my own work though. Thanks to everyone who posted before me and helped me write this XML.
The primary focus of this XML is to swap in the appropriate gear when nuking/buffing/debuffing/etc. and then swap out to and Idle set whenever not doing anything. This gives maximum dmg output and minimum dmg taken. This should be ideal for soloing BLMs. Just substitute your gear where appropriate.
I am constantly tweaking things. Eventually I will upgrade my equipment, and my own XML, but I may not get around to updating this XML here.
If you have any questions or comments, feel free to track me down and ask me. Thanks.
