ACT does not have a "damage done per target" split?

That is surprising. Its basic Recount functionality.

Open up encounter > Selected enemy*Faust) > Right click incoming damage > lookup by combtant.

Garuda wins hands down for A1. Contagion helps alot with multitasking+MP saving, being able to attack right away after landings as well as having Aerial Slash + Enkindle hit boss+both adds upon spawning when they are off CD. Not to mention having Garuda on your add helps without having it lose DPS like Ifrit.

A2, I haven't really tried Ifrit but I think Garuda also easily takes this. Contagion on Vuln up target + Bane is too strong, and Enkindle+Aerial Slash have better Radius. Also if you plan/are using Blizzard 2, you are gonna need contagion to not go OOM.

A3, hmm.. I start with Garuda on P1 and then SC Ifrit during phase transition then manually apply Radiant Shield for the incoming cleave. You will probably want to switch to Garuda again during add phase though since its much better there. It doesn't lose DPS switching between adds and if you target the tornado and use Enkindle on it I THINK it can reach the adds upon spawning. Then probably Ifrit again for last phase.
