Nin TP Increase: Too Much?

[Aiurily]

snip

the point of the potency per tp napkin math isn't to prove that nin needs paeon or that it's better to paeon nin than foes a blm; it's simply to prove that your idea of telling ninjas to "manage tp properly" has no solid argument behind it, because the current nin rotation priority system already is 100% tp efficient if the warrior is applying slash debuff.

ninjas aren't like monks; their dots aren't as tp inefficient as ToD/fracture (it's actually the most tp efficient, again), and they aren't like summoners who have self sustain at the sacrifice of dps. ninjas have 0 reason to drop their dots like a mnk would when they're the most efficient skills in term of tp to potency

my entire point is that there is literally no way for a ninja to improve their tp usage if they're already doing the normal, optimal rotation and using perfectly timed invigorates (which isn't gonna stop them from tp starving). i'm sorry if i come off as offensive, but that's my entire point, again.

now for the paeon for self+single melee dps vs foes for blm thing, to make an example i'd have to get a solid parse of a dummy fight where everyone (who are also all conveniently skilled) is comfortably performing to napkin math that out. but lets just go with imaginary numbers.

blm - 500 dps
brd - 430 dps
nin - 550 dps

so foes would be a free 15% dmg increase to the blm, +75 damage total. looking at a few of my parses, about 64% of my damage comes from weaponskills; if you cut that in half to factor in for tp starvation, that's 32% less damage; a nin would be working at 68% of their original dps, or 374 (total of -176 dps). the brd singing paeon would get -20% dps, or -86.

if paeon puts the nin back at their original dps, that's a net dps gain of 90 (+176 dps-86 dps). 90 dps>75 dps; and this isn't even factoring that it allows the brd to not be held back on their own tp, that the mnk who may be already in surplus of tp from goad may be able to use fracture, that even the tanks might even use fracture if it's a dps gain for them and tp concerns were an issue otherwise. the numbers are all napkin math tier/estimates, but i don't think they're very far from reality. you can shift the numbers up and down to your liking, but i still think the result would be favor paeon, or be very close, as long as they're reasonable and realistic.
