I have a few questions about how to eke out the most damage from my angelic buster.

soul seeker vs. trinity:
Trinity, with soul seeker expert, does more damage than soul seeker spam. HOWEVER, on certain targets (notably PB statues) soul seeker expert just doesn't proc. I don't know if it's just me, but unless the mini-beans are out, NO orbs will appear unless I actually use soul seeker. In this situation, is trinity still superior to soul seeker spam?

Celestial roar vs. trinity
Does celestial roar do more damage than trinity with 2 targets (like pb statues)? What about with shade soul splitter: should I switch to roar over trinity?

Cooldowns
All of them improve damage. They don't all line up.
Soul resonance: 60 seconds (after end)
Finale Ribbon: 72 seconds with hyper
Terms and Conditions, pretty exaltation, supreme supernova: 90 seconds
Final Contract: 120 seconds

What's the best way to make use of these disparate timings? Should I hold onto soul resonance and ribbon for t&c and pretty exaltation? Should I wait for final contract?

Sharp Eyes vs. Star Gazer
If I can get an actual SE from a bowman, should I forego star gazer's crit damage in favor of the extra crit chance?

I do not have dSI, but I do have green pots, if that makes a difference somewhere..

Yeah, that's exactly what happens. I hate it. It does it too me every time I'm trying to solo Hellux and I'm standing far to the left side trying not to get hit...and then seeker locks up and I have to carefully move forward to untrigger the antihack security so I can attack again.

Star gazer > sharp eyes. I don't think there's a single ab out there that still makes this mistake and forgoes star gazer for sharp eyes. It's easy enough to get 90%+ crit chance anyways.

dSI is great. Stack it with green pot and melody cross now and you're fine. You don't even really need dSI now that melody gives a speed boost. Only real reason to get dSI now is just for dojo if you dojo.

The rest of this you're just making more complicated than it is. Cast when you can.
