The default build uses as it is more suitable for fractals, and the shorter loops make it easier to fit around phase timings.
has a longer burst (as it gets an extra use of each Morph skill) and does more damage in each burst, but aligning with your burst means delaying the burst by three seconds compared to the build.
In general, this means that is better in very short phases, such as in power fractals, or in phases where it can get more bursts in than .
The longer loops of do mean that can be consistently used every other burst and is therefore fully buffed each time, whereas the shorter loops of cause to desync from the burst, eventually making it optimal to delay the elite. This gives an advantage to on encounters with very long phases. It can also use twice each loop, rather than having to save it solely to trigger .

Opener
The opener is optimised around being able to precast bombs just before combat starts. It is essential to get the field from down before detonates (the latter has a 1s longer fuse time). If you are worried about your speed, feel free to move earlier in the opener.
You can precast a - detonate it as soon as a explodes and the opener otherwise won't change because the cooldown starts when you place the mine.
