SUMMONER "rotation/priority"

Why ruin 3 outside of trance, does it not wreck your mana? I guess you do it to take advantage of the ruin buff from tridisaster but I'm surprised you can sustain mana :s I guess each time you tridisaster after the first is likely to be within a trance...


Also, during bahamut, whats the difference between ruin2 and ruin3, given you dont have an ogcd ability to use? Both are 1 cast in 1 gcd, right?

Yes MP management is harder now with the spamming of Ruin 3 and it is easy to run out of it in longer fights if your not watching. The reason for Ruin 2 has to due with ark moh. Ruin 3 can keep you locked out of getting a second one in before Bahamut leaves. What I do is Ruin 3 and when the Bahamut timer is close do a Ruin 2 for the last one.

Wouldn't Ruin II be better (except when you get a Ruin IV proc) during Bahamut since it allows oGCD weaving throughout?

All Ruin 2's might be better. To me Ruin 3 and 4 are the same sharing one button. I also seem to proc into 4 quite a bit. I probably should have said Ruin 3/4 to be more clear. If I see something is coming off of CD I will attempt to use it first but I'm still learning and trying to see how everything lines up on the boss fights as that has more effect over the long term on what button I push. I hate it when I get off on timing and the boss goes not targetable when in Dreadwyrm Trance or now Bahamut.
