It feels absolutely clunky to piano during reawaken when the rest of the job's kit is built around consolidated buttons and oGCD weaving. Feels like they grafted Reaper's enshroud onto the job while ignoring the main premise of Viper being built around having minimal button bloat.
It is consolidated. Personally, I have the standard combo actions as Q and E, the Twinblade glissando as 1-4, and Reawaken/Ouroboros as 5.
This is actually the most laid back part of the entire rotation. If that's not your thing, I'd recommend playing something like SAM, DRG, or WAR instead.
Asking this genuinely, realistically where else would they put it except on a separate button?
The entirety of the single target rotation (Including Reawaken) can fit on one hotbar with 2 extra open buttons for the ranged attack and even a tincture if you want it for harder content. I don't know how you can get more condensed than that.
I am on keyboard, but for me and in order
Row 2: Twinfang, Serpent's Tail, Twinblood, Dreadwinder, True North, Reawaken
Row 1: Steel Fangs, Dread Fangs, Hunter's Coil, Swiftskin's Coil, Uncoiled Fury, Serpent's Ire
As most of the time it just goes for me: 1, ctrl+2, 2, ctrl+2, 3, ctrl+2, 4, ctrl+2, ctrl+6
Reawaken is a very efficient button. It is both how we enter and exit (Ouroboros) the burst phase. All of the other buttons you use should already be on your hotbar in prominent positions. Press five buttons during this phase makes it more fun compared to Enshroud
