    Idling 2.5 secs for 80 potency attack is losing a good amount of DPS? Surely you jest. You're better off sparing yourself that GCD for a real attack.

    You will not be able to use Ruin or Ruin II on Titan. 1. Because you're moving around too much and 2. You'll be needing the Tank to blind Titan with Flash.

    I start recasting at 3 secs. Whatever latency that exists in the system will shave off fractions of a second, so I assume that 3 displayed = 2.5 realtime. If you see that your latency means you start casting at 5, by all means cast at 5.

    I'll try doing it at 3, I need to learn to chill out. during Ifrit I'm constantly just refreshing DoTs when that time is probably better spent elsewhere. What would you be doing during mostly stationary bosses like this once your DoTs are up? I see that you don't throw in filler Ruins so I'm curious what you do if you have full free time
