We are at the point where we have to stop DPS during the first quarantine and wait for the people in quarantine to get out or else they die by mortal revolution.

Quarantine is cancer for any DPS. Even as a BLM, I will either have to A. Prepare for it(but that would be a dps loss if I DON'T get sent into quarantine). or B. Continue w/ my normal rotation and pray I don't get quarantine.

After this reset, I will be doing A1-4s on SMN. However, I will really only ever do A4S on Summoner w/ the nisi strat. I just don't see myself ever doing A4S on SMN with the other strat. However, you probably already do this but on the 3rd/4th leg and final phase, since your mana is going to hit 0 anyway, you can probably go crazy w/ ruin 3s outside of trance which would kind of make up for the potency loss from replacing a fester by energy drain I think ?
