    Optimal is just that...optimal. EVERY job has an optimal rotation to maximize DPS.

    My apologies if I gave the impression I do not know this...but the question of "who's more gimped" without directional access was not in my original point. Likewise I never commented on who is more effected by losing access to rear or flank, I simply stated they both require the same directional access for full and proper rotation.

    As for the ambiguity of using the term mandatory, I said it was mandatory for optimal DPS in both classes. Which is entirely true and as Vodomir says, it was not even my choice of word.
