    Yeah. Minuet is a song you play to give you a static buff, much like Swiftsong remains until you cancel it. So you can use buffs like Raging Strikes to further your output still.

    Is the song best not to use all the time, meaning will it out put lower dps in time due to how long you use it combate compared to the faster combate with the song off / or does it not matter if you used it all the time ?

    And if in short bust is it best to use on boses and hard adds?

    This is the true for machinist; as soon as you get the skill at 52, it's not exactly feasible to use it even in ideal circumstances. The 20% attack boost does not necessarily make up for the loss of auto attacks. You need the other abilities which are locked behind minuet/barrel to more-than make up for the loss of autos. That is how it currently feels on my machinist.
