Openers

General Info

Jinpu vs Shifu First
Any opener can accommodate switching between Jinpu first and Shifu first. In a vacuum Shifu wins out. However, in planned or predictable phase timing Jinpu may edge out if no additional GCD is gained. As this is GCD variable you should test it yourself when deciding.

3 Sen Hagakure Opener
Rotation: http://ffxivrotations.com/17ou

When to use: Your standard all-purpose opener viable up to 1633 SKS.
- Liberal (optional) double weaving to hit raid buff window but can incur clipping depending on your ping.
- Use Infusion after Kasha if GCD clipping or low SKS means that you don't buff Midare (test this yourself).
- With high enough ping to cause GCD loss or no Infusion buff on Midare consider dropping some (or all) of the double weaves. A complete no double weave opener will look like this:  http://ffxivrotations.com/15f7 / https://i.imgur.com/UPUoWJT.png
