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

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.

Prep Creature Motif, Weapon Motif, and Starry Sky Motif before countdown. 1. ~4.5sec prepull Rainbow Drip, weave Striking Muse 2. Holy (Instant), weave Tincture + Pom Muse 3. Wing Motif, weave Starry Muse (3rd GCD Buff Opener) 4. Hammer Stamp, weave Winged Muse 5. Hammer Brush, weave Mog of the Ages 6. Polishing Hammer, weave Subtractive Palette 7. Blizzard in Cyan --> Yellow in Stone --> Thunder in Magenta 8. Comet in Black 9. Star Prism 10. Rainbow Drip (Instant)(End of Starry Muse/Raid buffs)
