Notes:
⬥ Refer to the Masuta Water Skip Explanation section for a more detailed explanation.
⬥ Use 
if required to avoid phasing past 275k too early.
⬥ Masuta should idealy be around 290-300k health after . Use defensives to build if his health is getting too close to 275k.

Masuta Water Skip Explanation
⬥ Masuta phases to the timelocked Thrashing Waters special at 275k hp, and can no longer phase after 55k hp. The goal of this rotation is therefore to kill Masuta on the 'Persistent Hurricane' spin attack (the long special attack) so it cannot phase into the Thrashing Waters phase, saving one minute on the Masuta kill.
⬥ Masuta's attack pattern has a random number of auto attacks between specials, but the number of auto attacks follows a normal distribution, meaning you will generally encounter the following pattern:
⬥ 2-4 auto-attacks
⬥ Persistent Hurricane
⬥ 3-5 auto-attacks
⬥ Greater Shadow Tsunami
⬥ 3-5 auto-attacks
⬥ Repeats from Hurricane
