It's so hard to decide. The one I'm looking at I can't get the accuracy lower but I like the stat layout.

5 F4 without use of convert under Ley Lines on first wave of Enoch works. Success in Void Ark today. Gotta use Sharp F3 after the 4 F4. Just enough MP for B3 and auto tick into T1 or B4 or both.

Awesome stuff.

Edit: tested on dummy and if you get a 2nd FS proc you'll have just enough time to get another 5 Fire 4's and just barely reset Enoch. And with my usual Enoch set this means I can reach 16 Fire 4 casts as opposed to 15(assuming you run F4x5/F4x4/F4x3/F4x3 without Convert)

Why would you use that as normal rotation when you could just use Eno again and get F4x4 minimum every time, assuming no mechanics where it's useful?

To get the most out of a single Enochian chain. Plus it was a experiment and you will always have to consider mechanics. A lot of content doesn't consist of a stand still dummy.

You're not getting the most out of the chain by getting a 15 second refresh when you could start a new one. The first three give x amount of dps, the fourth gives <x, so start over rather than going into the 4th.

The only time it's worth doing is when you know a leap is coming that might leave you without a target to refresh Enochian in 25-30 seconds.

So if I read you correctly you want to refresh Enoch after the 20 second refresh?

If Enochian is up, pop it after F3 instead of refreshing with B4. That lets you squeeze in a Thunder that you're probably skipping and gives you wiggle room for mechanics and that potential Thundercloud proc.
