PUG/MNK Optimization

[enil]

It's not necessary to get a 2.0 GCD to make True Strike a DPS increase*.

* Assuming you don't inject additional attacks like TOD/ID/FR in that Twin cycle and you don't disconnect from the boss for mechanics.

That's analysis done by idiots who don't understand the combat system / can't model competently.

Maybe you should show us instead of calling people idiots?
Assuming higher than 2.0GCD and using True Strikes you will have a total of 6GCD between Twin Snake applications (Twin - Coeurl - Opo - True Strike - Coeurl - Opo - Twin). Your twin snakes buff will drop off before your second Twin - meaning you lose 10% on Twin Snakes and any possible autoattacks/off gcd attacks you might apply. If somehow this is not the case can you explain why?

What EasymodeX is describing is something like this:


You don't need 2.0 but you can't quite make it work with 2.2 either. 2.1 (or just under to pad for lag, button delay, etc.) is all you need.
