Why are there 2 Raijus?

[RyuuZero]

Raijin should just automatically turn into Fleeting Raiju or Forked Raiju depending on the distance you are from your targeted enemy. That way neither one would require taking up two tabs in a hot bar and people who like either one can keep both.

I think it's fine of how it is now^^ Endwalker Launch NIN was horrible in comparison to 6.05 NIN though I dislike changing actions depending on distance, that would open a whole other can of worms
as for me, I put the Gapclose Raiju to a space where it fits and I'm fine.. honestly I think it would be better if both Raiju would do the same amount of damage.

Forked and Fleeting Raiju do deal the same amount of damage, which is why you can use the one you prefer under normal circumstances, unless you meant something else?

what really? Cool! I only know about the different potencies from the Endwalker Launch, I just thought the Devs just sundered the Skills ^^

Except I'm pretty sure (it's been a minute since I've checked) Forked Raiju animation locks you whereas Fleeting does not.

And in most cases you just use raiton under a trick attack window, so disconnecting is not something you really want to do.
