the shorter the parse the more of an effect x-pot will have

but usually around 40~ extra dps for a melee dps is what i've observed

T10 loves me.

whats the preferred dps rotation for single target / aoe currently??? I just hit 45 and want to start working my way to the perfect rotation now.. Im really confused as ijust learned my final mudra and want to put it into practice

Should Kassatsu be ONLY used after a TA or whenever it's off cooldown AFTER the initial sui+tri+ combo?

Kassatsu is preferably used after TA so your next ninjutsu is not only crit. but gains the TA bonus aswell. I'd save it.

has anyone made a BIS using the flexibility of the relic?

Change the current bis to relic and you have bis.

I made a set based off my relic and it's pretty far above the non-crafted set I've posted in the OP.

Not sure it's "best" but still damn good IMO.

Aren't we forced to take some lesser items due to accuracy needs? What if the accuracy difference can made up in the relic and better pieces can be used?

That's the BiS I came up with by iterating Acc and Crit by 1 point each, taking care to skip impossible values and then calculating the weights using 535 minimum accuracy and the default weights. I also avoided Flint Caviar. Note that this might very slightly over-value SS, but only slightly so. I'm also way too lazy to work out a crafted BiS, partially because I don't have a better tool than ariyala's site and partially because who could even afford it?
