Ninja: Walk in shadow.

[JakzChurchill]

You have your skill names mixed up. Sneak attack is the one that gives 500 potency from front. Trick Attack is 400 from the rear.

Errmm no I didn't; In a party you'll straight up do more damage with 400 potency and 10% damage increase for all party members, Infact a good burst rotation a Ninja will do 120 - 130 additional potency on their own. Making Trick Attack 530 and Sneak Attack 500. Now say the other 3 - 4 dps do the same, thats an extra 390 - 520 potency across the party. Not including tank damage and what not. It just out and out eclipses Sneak Attack.

Plus as mentioned your postioned perfectly for each one, in a party you'll be standing at the rear, so your already for TA, the opposite is also true when solo where you'll be set up perfect for SA.


EDIT: Viridiana, Doing some theory crafting in another thread found the optimal burst rotation after trick attack of mutilate --> Kassutsu --> Raiton --> Spinnning Edge --> Shadow Fang --> ?maybe a 5th depending on kraiton time? came at at about 1182 potency with a crit over the 10 seconds not including auto attacks, up to 1345 with a second spinning edge.

Infact If it's definite that you can get 5 abilites with Raiton, you can infact use Aeoilian Combo for a wopping 1529 potency. That's an additional 139 potency for Ninja over 10 seconds not including Auto Attack. Remembering also that Kraiton will be a crit hit aswell.

The other rotation viable finsher rotation for below 20% is

Mutilate : 360 [396] - 2s -> Spinning Edge : 150 [165] - 4s -> Gust Slash : 200 [220] - 6s -> Aeoilian Edge : 320 [352] - 8s - Assasinate : 200 [220] - 9s -

1353 Potency, 123 additional potency.

But thats if you want to be sure you don't mess up your Ninjutsu and wanna a clear 1350 potency. (also only works if they will live long enough for Mutilate to run out)

Disclaimer: This is only theory and needs to be tested, it could and most likely is wrong at this point in time.
