Even if you do floor your delay, I can't see it being enough of an increase in TP phase damage and WS rate to offset a 40% reduction in WS damage.
You're also building for Exp like this is the Birds era and you have to do it for more than a few hours at a time. Why Exp on a capped job past the first few batches of merits to cap all categories?
This is the classic FFXI blunder of over-optimizing for trash mobs and 'perfect' (COR, BRD, DNC all in one party, etc) situations. It's why I was never impressed that a piercing job could outdamage my DRK at birds by 10%.

Because we already know how tog ear for max damage on NM's. I could really care less about exp, i dont even exp any more honestly, but I like to know who togear for certain occasions. Sometimes I get in the mood to jsut plow through a bunch of trash mbos and I want to know what the best setup for that is. On top of that, I'd rather not go back to /ra spam unless it truely is superior to melee spam for trash mobs.
