Yup. Checks out.
Trick Attack averages +1.67% group DPS.
On Susano, SAM is ~350 DPS higher than NIN -both without balance- (if you include Balance, the gap jumps from 350 DPS to 450. But I won't talk about that as the parses without Balance already prove my point).
For Trick Attack to fill this gap, you need 21k group DPS. This is, of course, assuming that the NIN doesn't miss any Trick Attack and assuming absolutly no downtime... Which, in reality, makes Trick Attack worse than what I said.

In short, for NIN to be at least at the level of SAM, you need a group that can do 21k DPS. It means that your whole group has to work quite hard to make up for the fact that they bring a NIN instead of a SAM which could've been fine by himself alone.

Susano needs 14k group DPS to be clearable. As of today, quite a lot of PF groups still hit enrage. So this 21k group DPS is far from being the norm.

I check my numbers. Do you?
