I actually like making Demolish the first Coeurl form skill that I use, the base damage still is 310 and the duration ticks out just after you gain your third greased lightning stack. Demolish(GL1) -> Snap(GL2) -> Snap(GL3) -> Demolish(fully ticked and buffed by GL3).

I don't see any reason to ever use Snap Punch for the first Coeurl move due to this.

Look the Impulse Drive is just a preference. You can put it away if you don't want it I'm not implying it to everyone to use it. For your information I can still do everything without missing any uptime and Fracture is for increase of DoT.

You prefer dealing lower damage? I prefer dealing higher damage. I guess that's preference.

The rest of your post makes no sense. That's not possible.

Unless you confuse "missing no uptime" with clipping in which case you actually are wasting 2 ticks of the DoT every rotation.

Interesting.
Aside from that, I may have missed the memo somewhere, but why is it bad to use Fracture?

No it is not a preference, you are throwing away 70 TP on a skill that does less damage than one that costs 50 TP.
Shayuki is not the only one saying your rotation is bad.

Well, it's not that Fracture is bad to use period but it needs to be used at very specific times.

If you do your normal rotation and you reapply Touch of Death, if you use Fracture as well during that rotation, you will miss one GCD of Dragon Kick and Twin Snakes, as said before(Unless you skip Bootshine and True Strike but that's a huge dps loss as well). It also costs 80 TP. It's situational.

I guess that rotation isn't a gigantic DPS loss though, mostly it's extremely TP-inefficient but maybe a 6-8% loss?

Ah, I see what you mean.
My rotations have been set up in such a way that I do not lose DK/TwS, apart from that, if TP becomes an issue I stop using it.

I'll leave it out tonight and look at the parse results.

Um... 6 to 8% DPS loss is something I do consider gigantic.
