Crushing Darkness has still better DPCT , but FL under Barrage can go before CD in priority, since buff has limited time, and also can disappear sometimes when you get knockbacked or damaged. Probably numbers would not change much if it goes after CD either.

Nice, that makes it almost identical to Excel Hybrid DPS. In fact, all 3 builds are now under or around 1% difference between Excel and Sim (Excel/Sim DPS: Hybrid 1254/1250, Lightning 1229/1208, Madness 1219/1208).

It also keeps all 3 builds within 3% DPS of each other, which is always good (allowing preferred play-style to be reason to select build, instead of max DPS)
