Bear in mind you can also switch up the sequence! It's entirely free flow so long as you cram everything in. This is especially useful for heavy movement mechanics early on a fight during the opener
So my issue at the moment is knowing what to do after the opener, the rotation. I learned the opener, but i'm not sure where to properly begin to understand Picto after the opener. Do I immediately draw all 3 canvas again right after the opener? especially the landscape because shouldn't I just draw that early to get it out the way? do I burn all the stacks of the hammer and creature motiff and spam the 1-2-3 combo? when I get palette gauge, do I immediately waste 50 and starting casting the slow powerful ones? is there any reason to reach 100 gauge of it? sorry to everyone but I just have so many questions. I just don't exactly what i'm doing after opener when I keep playing it.
Since you need to redraw the canvases at some point anyway i usually always try and do so right after the dmg buff falls off, and before i need them, especially if i can do so in moments of low movement needed
Swiftcast the creature motif and pop it, to get it recharging, then 123 combo until swift comes up then hammer motif, etc. I only stack to 100 while fighting trash to get the extra palette shift on the boss, on bosses, hit the palette shift as soon as it hits 50, if your white paint hits 5 stacks, pop holy right before blue so you don't waste a white paint.
@@AnnaMorgenstern Due to the recast timer, swiftcasting the paintings doesn't make too much of a difference, so it's a very situational thing, like needing to move while also needing to paint at the same time, but in terms of the rotation, hardcasting your paints is something you should be doing most of the time.
After the opener, you can consume all the remaining charges of the motifs (by this time, right after the opener, 2 charges of Creature Motif should be up, and at least 1 Hammer Motif), then if no motifs are up, you can 1-2-3 Palette 3-2-1 combo. You can keep using the 50 paint to use Subtractive Palette (much like an RDM with their melee phase), if fight is movement heavy you can delay the subtractive palette use. If you see burst phase coming up, you can start casting and prepping your 1. Starry Sky Motif (or just Swiftcast it honestly). 2. Creature Motif as either Winged or Maw Muse (since Mog of the Ages/Retribution of the Madeen is key during burst phases). and your 3. Hammer Motif. No need to think about paint during burst because you have a free Palette from Starry Muse. That's pretty much it. The burst rotation priority can change depending on which one you're more comfortable to use but the most important part is you're able to use Mog/Madeen inside burst phase.
Picto is freeform between burst windows. You do your opener, then whatever the heck you want until the next 2 minute buff, as long as: * You have all your canvases painted for the next Starry Sky; * You are set up to have both creature muse and Mog or Nadeen under burst; * You are set up to do hammer motif. Every 2 minutes you go into burst; when Starry Skies is at 10 seconds, if you have or are about to get a new Creature Muse charge and don't have mog/nadeen, spend it, then Hammer Muse, then paint Creature Motif, then Starry Skies, hammer & dump oGCDs between, Subtractive combo, star prism, comet, Rainbow Drip. Basically, you do your opener every 2 minutes and then as long as you follow the ABCs and make sure you're set up for your next burst, you can't play it wrong.
Everything happened so fast idk what am I seeing 😔😭 can u show which button to click , I’m a healer main so transitioning to dps , having to press more than 2 buttons of dps give me headache 😥
Ngl I really hate how you can't use Steel Muse if not in combat cuz you actually gotta spam it before using Holy instead of just queuing it like you would any other ability during any other cast Also cuz being able to just use it whenever would be great for Hunt Trains tbh
> I hate Rainbow Drip into Striking muse, I hate it with a burning passion and every fiber of my being. SAME! The delayed damage causes me to clip striking muse every time >:(
