    this is a bad idea because mudra cooldown currently does not start until you have used your ninjutsu.

    lets say you use ten, spinning slash, chi, gust slash, jin, aeolian edge, ninjutsu. this leaves you delaying the use of your ninjutsu and effectively prolonging your cooldown, and by extension, decreasing your dps by a good bit.

    if youre really having that many problems with mudra, you should just use Fuma Shuriken instead of raiton

    I'm not trying to weave a move between each and every mudra but I would like to be able to weave buffs and stuff non the less, nothing wrong with having the option, people that don't wanna weave can just not weave.

    I agree with your points throughout this thread, but there is one point everyone (including myself, previously) misses where weaving being allowed could actually be beneficial. As you correctly note, weaving GCDs between each is definitely a loss in DPS, but the following input chain:

    Ten, Chi, Jin, Suiton (game doesn't register Suiton input), Gust, Bunny

    could be improved by allowing weaving, where it would become:

    Ten, Chi, Jin, Suiton (game doesn't register Suiton input), Gust, Suiton (game registers properly)

    I'm too lazy to math out whether Ten+Chi, GCD, Jin+Suiton would be beneficial, or even Ten+Chi, GCD, Raiton (instinct says no, but math would be nice). But the above case is an easily demonstrable DPS increase.

    I agree, but its just semantics if a proposed fix creates as much friction as it resolves.

    that said, yoshi p announced in the recent live letters, that mudra will be tweaked to hopefully allow a smoother experience with less lag in the upcoming patch 3.1, slated to release early november
