Questions abour RDM rotations. (Aoe and single target)

Chaotic, you pretty much have it right.

But if your tank is counting down the boss pull, once the timer gets to around 5 seconds, start hardcasting either Veraero or Verthunder so that it casts when the tank actually pulls, then hit Acceleration and dualcast the opposite spell. Contre Sixte and Fleche. Then your procced Verfire/Verstone. Then just alternate Black<->White until 80/80. You may want to pop Diversion before you start the pre-pull hardcast because you can actually pump out a decent amount of enmity in your opener.

If the tank isn't counting down the boss pull, then just go with Jolt->Veraero/Verthunder.

Also staying in melee range is a slight DPS increase. So you can actually use Displacement, then Corps-a-corps in before doing the melee combo(On bosses with "GET AWAYoE's", I like to hold on to my Displacement and CaC to quickly get out of the AoE and then jump back in).

Hm, I hadn't considered keeping in melee range and using Displacement/Corps-a-Corps that way. I might need to practice that. As for the pre-pull strategy, I'm only about halfway through the original Heavensward content so usually the tank and the rest of the group start tearing into bosses pretty quickly, and I don't end up with a lot of time for preparations lol. I will still try to remember that later down the road though.
