It's just a quirk with the way I think, perhaps.


Wait a minute... there's more!

So, most of the Sith stuff is just tactics, so I'll ignore those. The Dark Rift is a Dual Weapon Attack (well, really more a two-weapon Rapid Strike, but I think that should use -4 instead of -6) - the first is probably a Setup Attack, the second is uses Trakata. For Blazing Supernova, the spinning should probably use Acrobatics for a Setup (like how upthread I suggested Trakata using Fast Draw for a Setup) rather than RAW Spinning Attack. After this you can either do a Setup Attack and follow up with a second with the other hand, or you can do a Rapid Strike to attack and, assuming a Parry, follow up with Bind Weapon so your foe can't Parry the next attack.
