This is why this game should'nt get a parse

[TaranTatsuuchi]

I have mixed feelings on this because even if the game does a poor job of teaching this stuff there ARE ample resources out there that will at least help get people to an acceptable level. People who want to play well can take the initiative to seek out the information they're missing.
...

One resource if examined and time taken to apply it in a logical manner should provide a fairly solid basis for a job's rotation....
The tooltips.

I'm pretty sure I could, if given a new job and time to logic my way through the tooltips, come up with a passable rotation.
Of course, I'm not going to come up with the most optimal use of cooldowns, but the basic rotations aren't that difficult for the most part.
