Yeah, I feel like I'm missing something here. USB>BSB2 spam> reapply USB seems like the best route, why use BSB2 first instead? Burst Mode is a 20% boost to stats/10% SPD/Haste (which doesn't matter anyway because you should have a dived Lightning if you own both), USB gives 30% ATK+Enlightning+High Quickcast (reapplied with every thunder ability). Sure, the imperil will benefit your whole party but even then you'll hardly have more than 3 characters abusing the elemental imperil with attacks unless you're doing YOLO runs in Magicites to get those crazy sub-5 clears. Hitting weakness also charges your SB bar faster but I'm not sure that's enough of a benefit either, especially in content where you can already strike weakness without it.
