PB opening
DK > SP > SP > SP > IR > DM > FR > ToD (will give GL3)


1. Open Behind - (skipped if opening with PB) Only start with this if you have GL3 and not opening with PB)
BS > TS > IR > DM > Frac > ToD

The rest are assuming you have GL3

2. Flank

3. Behind
ID > ID > BS > TS > Flank SP
4. Flank
DK > TwS > DM > SP
5. Behind
ID > ID > BS > TS > Flank SP
6. Flank
DK > TwS > SP
7. Behind (stage 1 repeat)
ID > ID > BS > TS > IR > DM > Frac > ToD

Is this the optimal MNK rotation? I haven't touched my MNK since 1.0 so I'm lost on how to play it.

I was in the same boat. This i feel is optimal for boss fights. For trash mobs, remove all DoT's so Demolish, Fracture and Touch of death. If you really want to add 1 DoT then make it demolish as it completes the GL rotation.
