Like roughly 40p. If we choose to drop Raiju because we have no other choice, the loss is far more noticeable. Not using capstone skills in most cases is a loss. Since most mechanics happen during Trick, we're looking at the potential of dropping Raiju more often than once in a fight, which builds up, and gives NIN far less flexibility in prog, especially in Savage that have DPS checks within the first few days of release.
I just see the raijus as something that you can't use all the time, so it's expected potency should take that into account. When you can use it, it's a bonus.
It's like Trick Attack which can't be kept up all the time, so I don't consider it a loss when it's not up.
