    start Bio II -> Miasma -> Bio

    Always. I see so many summoners starting with other stuff.

    DON'T DO IT.

    That starting rotation gets you to Fester the fastest without any GCD clipping by using an off-GCD ability while your GCD is ready, and it easily sets up your rotation/timers for the future.

    Here is a general starting rotation:
    Bio II -> Miasma -> Bio -> Fester during GCD(make sure to delay it a little more until the Bio debuff is present) -> Shadow Flare -> Thunder -> Ruin -> Ruin II -> Raging Strikes+Fester during GCD -> Bio -> Miasma -> Thunder -> Fester -> Bio II -> Ruin -> Shadow Flare -> Bio -> Contagion during GCD.

    After that you have to let the DoTs wear off completely because you can't overwrite a RS+DoT with a normal DoT, so then just proceed to keep DoTs up. Use Ruin II when you want to use Rouse/Spur(should be on CD, but don't use until after that initial rotation. No time).


    Since you're not 50(no Shadow Flare), just replace that with a ruin.



    And, yes, get thunder and Raging Strikes. After that get Swiftcast, which is very useful. Instant cast battle rez, or to re-summon pets.
