Connecting the DoTs: A Summoner Guide

[rzr22]

Hey, I'm fairly new to SMN and I'm also a fairly fresh 60 SMN. I didn't really play SMN before the expansion, and I'm wondering if any of the info in the main post is out of date.

What pet is best to use now? The OP seems to make Ifrit sound the best in most situations, but is that true now with Dreadwyrm Trance and the ability to extend the 10% increased DoT duration?

Can someone give me a good opener? I'm having trouble figuring out when to use Raging Strikes and Tri-Disaster. I assume we hold both back for Trance.

Do you ever Trance without Tri-Disaster? If so, what do you cast during the duration?

What's the optimal Trance rotation? I'm trying to fit two Festers in, but I always mess up and am not sure on the timing.
