Triple fell cleave is nice but it's a bit awkward in practice because berserk comes really late which by that time Trick Attack and Battle Litany both wears off. It's still good but I think the raid gets more mileage with a PLD using Goring->RA->RA with FoF and Sword Oath. Also putting vengeance that far down you risk not having it up for first tank buster and definitely won't have it up for preys.
Some good points here, but I can add that if you do use Vengeance in your opener for Wrath it will be up just in time to absorb the first buster. The Prey missiles are Physical Damage too, so they're great fodder for Foresight and Raw Intuition since they won't help with the magical Tank Buster.

For reference, I've been opening with Eye combo -> Block combo -> Heavy Swing -> Berserk/Release -> Cleave -> Infuriate -> Cleave -> Vengeance/Intuition -> Eye Combo -> 3rd Cleave eventually. Vengeance pops up again mere seconds before the first buster.

As for the worry of party buffs falling off because of Berserking late... it'll be worth some work to figure out whether starting immediately with a double cleave Berserk is optimal over waiting a moment to get a triple. Or said buffs could just be staggered through group communication, but that brings lots more variables into the equation!
