Couldn't have worded it better. I've played a lot of classes, but I'm dedicated to NIN so after finding out how *inflexible* we've become with 2 back-to-back gapclosers after each Raiton, I have to admit I'm disappointed and a little worried.

Honestly, I'm hoping the job gets some changes for the release of Endwalker. Like:
• Forked Ready and Fleeting Ready possibly coexist as buffs, so I'm not forced to do Forked -> Fleeting before I can Raiton again. They share the same button, sure, but I can see how Fleeting could take priority over Forked for button ownership.
• Perhaps Forked is a gapclosing GCD, but I think it could be cool if Fleeting was an OGCD. Maybe follows the same logic as my previous point.
• Please, don't let out 1-2-3 combos break our Raiju buffs. I have no clue why that is even a thing that can happen, especially with the buff lasting 15s. Not having the option to use a non-gapclosing weaponskill is so restricting.

Not to mention that Phantom Kamaitachi not being affected by Bunshin. The fact there's a gain by just not using the button for a Bunshin window is pretty awful.

If we do actually gapclose 4-6 times per minute, then I may find myself switching jobs despite being convinced I would continue it in EW ):
