Hello once more guys. I've been told by my LS to play BLU during our dynamis runs, and i was wondering what type of spell i should be using, as well as the gear setup. I would love if u could gimme some tips about how to play it in dynamis too, thank u.

There are various different ways you can play BLU in Dynamis, so there's no need to limit yourself to just one way. However, for Dynamis - Xarcabard, I'd recommend you focus on either doing a /THF Cannonball/Vertical Cleve set up and/or a max breath attack build. You can do the typical /NIN DD set up for all other zones, or /THF as well. You can also switch it up to /WHM healing build, focusing on maxing out Magic Fruit healing per MP and Frightful Roar/Stinking Gas/Enervation/Infrasonics debuffs.

You can find typical set ups for all three builds here on the forums.

they want me as blu/nin,, the funny thing is that im supposed to be DDing+sleeping and debuffing everything, so i dont rly know which spells i should be using during the dynamis runs, when i go /nin i dont equip debuffing spells, this is a totally new enviroment for me.

Sounds to me like they want you to be crowd control. Set up AoE hate spells, like Temporal Shift and Actinic Burst. Use them, they produce much hate and will keep the slept monsters off of the BLMs.

Can also set up Cocoon, a cure spell or two, and soporific and other sleep spells.

gear setups. well. hurm. stack haste for AoE spells like Temporal Shift.

yeah thats basically what they want, a crow cotrol blu. So i just basically need soforific, flashga and stunga spells? should i spam them or could i DD too?

Pretty much spam them. Try to set as much AoE spells as you can. I don't remember them all off the top of my head, I only know actinic, temporal, and soporific.

For gear setups, since you're probably not going to be meleeing, gear for MACC>Haste>PDT/Refresh(Idle).

Frightful Roar would also help, and you can probably throw out some Infrasonics.
