    Venom --> JinChiTen Ninjutsu (Huton) --> Hide --> TA --> BFB --> SE --> Kassatsu --> GS --> Xpot --> DE --> IR --> SE --> JinChi Ninjutsu (Raiton) --> SF --> Jug (TA debuff falls off here) --> Mut --> PPP --> SE --> GS --> AE (BFB & Xpot should fall off here, IR 1 GCD later)

    I'm assuming that DoTs are not affected by slashing resistance (similar to how phble DoT is not affected by Disembowel), and Ninjutsus are elemental spells that are also not affected by slashing resistance.

    TA increases damage taken by target during that 10seconds, the DoTs after the first 10 seconds don't get the 10% bonus, since the debuff will fall off while the tick is going.

    SE > GS > SE is second in weapon potency to only SE > GS > AE but it sets up better for the subsequent skills by placing the 10% slashing debuff early.
    SE > SF is third in weapon potency and since SE > GS > AE would not be in time for TA's debuff to last until AE, SE > SF is preferred

    This is all assuming a very tight 2s GCD, assuming Huton's speed buff and SS from gear is enough to push the GCD that low (similar to an instant GL3)

    I personally dislike using BFB before the fight starts for TA (400 potency) as you will lose some precious 2seconds or more of the debuff (if tank delays start etc) and it won't last till the last AE (320 potency, with slashing debuff on)

    Hope my reasoning is sound for the opener.
