    Drg's burst is generally better than NIN's because its just much simpler and does have a slight potency advantage.

    I'm not totally sure on both jobs optimal ones but ones I use would be as follows

    Power surge - jump, life surge - full thrust, spineshatter drive, dragonfire drive, leg sweep (7 abilities for a total potency of 1345 including 1.5x for crit on full thrust and 50% dmg boost on 200 potency jump)

    For nin

    Suiton - Trick attack - kassatsu - ration - mug - jugulate (6 abilities for 1340 potency, 1.5x for ration crit, NOT including the 10% trick attack bonus simply because drg could use their bust at the same time getting the same effect)

    I believe that DRG's burst is also quicker since casting suiton and ration probably takes longer than it does for DRG to do all the above off global cooldown abilities.

    Both drg and nin get access to Blood for blood, inner release and a dmg boost in the form of lowered resistance to slashing/piercing although DRG gets enhanced blood for blood thus making its burst dmg much higher than the potency effects as it is buffed to a higher level of attack.

    DISCLAIMER: not exactly sure how much of a damage increase DE for nin is or Disembowel for drg is. I read it's roughly a 6-7% increase.

    We won't count the forced crits on respective Full Thrust and Raiton. I know the 46% damage increase is applied to FT for drg on top of a forced crit, I imagine the exact same is true for nin with raiton.
