    I'll give your trolling effort a solid 7/10. It's very well calibrated to push people's buttons, but I would have led with the effortpost instead of the low-quality bait and gone with BLM or SAM as those jobs tend to be more popular among optimizers.

    Dont worry i assure you you will never see me in savage, there is reason why i avoid savage like a plague and this is one of the reason, iam just talking about casual and i already got "i hope i never have you in my group" response, its why i avoid savage, avoid people who demand 120% perfection during play or else, which i cant.

    And this is only "talk", i cant imagine how this will go if it happen in the middle of savage party.

    I was talking about the OP while responding to you I dunno how you play.
    Expecting people to put in the absolute bare minimum effort of actually doing their rotation properly and having melded gear and food buffs is not expecting 120% perfection.
    All it takes is one person being a problem and that one person will waste the time of everyone else in the group.

    Yes it's completely fair to expect people to not intentionally gimp their damage in Savage, it's not toxic and elitist or whatever if anything it's the reverse and it's toxic to go in not putting in effort out of laziness.
    It's extremely infuriating to be stuck in the same fight endlessly because you keep having one or two people every group who aren't pulling their weight, and it's not even a lot of weight to pull in reality.

    And again if someone isn't even bothering with this then why would I trust them to bother with other stuff?
    I think that the OP's attitude says something more than only Aeolian Edge vs Armor Crush I think it goes beyond that and it's a fair assumption to make, rarely do people just have this one exception usually it goes beyond.

    I don't rly care about fat numbers what I care about is that people respect others time and make an effort, like I said if someone has this attitude I don't believe it begins and ends there.

    Toxic casualism at it's finest...

    Just as others don't pay your sub, you don't pay theirs. Willingly gimping your DPS, and on a job that you actually like (not just level), is being incredibly selfish. You literally waste time of other 3-7 platers, or even risk failing a fight, simply becasuse you are lazy. I get that other posters here try to be nice, but someone had to say it directly.

    Funny thing is, people who talk badly the most about others are those self proclaimed casuals. Savage players are the "normal" people here and much less toxic than "you don'y pay my sub" crowd who makes tank burn all CDs on signle trash pull. Nobody requires perfection. If anything, people simply expect other players to, you know, WANT to play the game and not be carried while facerolling their keyboard? When you go play football/soccer with friends, you usually expect they will play the ball you pass to them and generally do their best to win, right?

    2) Spinning->Gust-> Aeolion & Spinning->Gust->Armor (Every30s)
    Pretty easily actually. Every three Hurajins you use drops a full Aeolian combo. You get slightly offset by getting an Aeolian Edge over an Armor Crush. This equates to 330 potency over 3m, which is effectively undoing the Hyosho buff. Basically about a 0.8-1% drop.

    The thing is, when you factor in just using Armor Crush when you’re forced on a flank anyways you’d lose more damage relative to that.

    Are you joking? You use Hurajin at the start of the fight and if huton ran out for any reason like downtime. Under no circumstances do you ever use it to refresh over Armour Crush...

    You don't use Hurajin at the start of the fight you use your Mudras and reset with Hide.

    Altho in duty finder tanks often insta pull in which case yeah.
