I actually really dislike that they made it circular - it makes AOE easier, but personally I find it to be less fun since it completely removes the movement incentive from our AOE rotation.

In Shadowbringers our AOE template sequence was: ▲o▲o[Kaiten]▲ - 4 repositions per combo.

At L86+ pre-6.1, Fuga becomes Fuko (circular), so our new rotation was: oooo[Kaiten]▲ - 2 repositions per combo (including the transition from Tenka Goken back to Fuko)

In 6.1 they deleted Kaiten and made Tenka Goken circular: ooooo - 0 repositions.

0 movement required now. The entire reason for melee to have positionals in single target is to incentivize movement even when not dodging enemy abilities - AOE templates can, used to, and should accomplish the same thing in AOE situations imo.
