The Ninja Superthread

[treuhavik]

I think a better title would have been "The ninja Guiden"

Ha! That would've been great. Honestly, I just found myself spending waayy too much time trying to come up with a good one so I went with the most generic title I could think of lol

I've gotten so many nin drops from coil im at the point where im about to say forget BiS and just poetic up other classes i like to play. lol Only missing 4 pieces(head,chest,hands,ring). Nice info. I use a modified version of that last opener that allows for some things to line up well, but that one works fine too.

Getting just under 700 initial burst and 505ish sustained now using Shaolin Mike's rotation (Huton pre-pull > SE > B4B > GS > IR > DE > Suiton > Multilate > Trick Attack > SE > Kassatsu > SF > Raiton > SE > Mug > GS > Jugulate > AE)

http://ffxiv.ariyala.com/OUMD On dummy - No food, party or pots This was including Assassinate however

I'll get around to testing the others soon.

U mind testing this rotation that I have been using? Huton (20 sec wait) suiton SE b4b gs ir de xpot se ta sf kass mut raiton se jug gs mug ae. This is what I open with any boss fight. It was posted in other ninja thread but I don't think it has been tested really.

I'm really liking this opener. Much less stressful to execute as long as you don't try to squeeze in a 2nd raiton. Just cast Huton while your mages cast SS and Protect. You've got roughly 35 seconds to get Suiton and Kass/Raiton off before Huton needs refreshing. The best part? If I crit AE during that opening TA debuff, it's eeeasily over 700 burst and finishes just above the other openers around 500 DPS. These are the same numbers I used to get from my old opener, which included LOTS of Assasinates. I'm going to keep playing with this for a while and see how much it improves.

Huton (wait 20) > Suiton > SE > BfB > GS > Mug > DE > IR > SE > TA > SF > Kassatsu > Mutilate > Raition > SE > Jugulate > GS > AE

This one was an accident durring testing but it gave me slightly higher burst, RNG maybe, but just as effective.

Numbers seem very high for your gear, but perhaps it's due to this. Please don't spam Assassinate, it completely skews the results in a terrible way. Shouldn't even use it at all when testing a rotation.

Yes, numbers from my old opener were inflated by Assassinate, what I just posted wasn't, yet they're the same values. That's the point I'm trying to make.




ButcherBoy, I've added your rotation to the OP. Thank you!
