The Ninja Superthread

[Dervy]

Silentwindfr, you keep mentioning how Aeolian Edge won't be used as much. Alright, fine. That's understandable, I think we can all agree here that this is the case. But to then say that it's somewhat going to kill the Ninja? Per Huton, you're fitting in around 3 Aeolian Edges. You'll be changing 1/3 of those for a new skill which refreshes Huton. Time for some Napkin Math.


(320*3)/70 = 13.71428571428571 PPS for Aeolian Edge

360/70 = 5.142857142857143 PPS for Raiton

In order for the new "Rotation" to be less effective, x2 Aeolian Edge + x1 Huton refresh needs to be 13.71428571428571 - 5.142857142857143 = 8.571428571428567 or more, compared to the difference between x3 Aeolian Edges 13.7 PPS, for you to see any beneficial gains. You have to remember that instead of a Huton, we're now using an additional Raiton to replace the Ninjitsu cast.

8.571428571428567 * 70 = 599.9999999999997

So as long as you're dealing more than 600 Potency in the same 70s breakdown, it's a potency Increase. If we assume that the Huton Refresh has a Potency of 220...

(320+320+220)/70 = 12.28571428571429 + 5.142857142857143 (Ration PPS) = 17.42857142857143. That's about *1.5 the PPS of just doing x3 Aeolian Edge.
