Ninja Single Target DPS Rotation - Early Attempts

[Leonus]

I would say Huton should be up constantly, as mentioned by MrHappy on his stream last night if you can cast Huton before the fight starts then it's amazing, if not you'll use it after the first TA, or as your first ability if you don't want to mess about with Hide -> Trick Attack.

So Huton --> Suiton if TA is up --> Raiton.

I'll be saving Kassutsu for Trick Attack combo aswell (Sui - TA - Kas - Rai)

Exactly this. Huron should be priority #1 if you don't have jus satsuma up to get soon after doing a nin cast for TA or R a it on if TA is down.

So without Kusatsu its:

Huton > Suiton + TA > raiton. For ST dps. This is a good established guideline.

What about aoe rotation?

What about aoe rotation?

Doesn't really have much of one. Only GCD AoE is lol100pot unless it's boosted by a trait.

Doton will be the better AoE jutsu to use (240pot floor dot over 24 seconds) unless you have Kassatsu, in which case you can toss out Katon too (180pot) though if it's anything like Life Surge you will only auto-crit one target.

Yeah so I probably won't completely abandon my BLM/SMN. AoE looks to be fairly nonexistent. I guess that's part of the balancing act.
