It's too bad, that complexity isn't depth.

Revealing Strike is consumed when you use Rupture (or any other finisher that works with it). It doesn't remain on the target increasing say all(multiple) finishers that you do during this time.

As stated in some postes earlier, enabling 4pc T8 also enables 2pc T8 which yields an increased energy regen (assuming you use Dp, which you should anyways). So your 400dps might be "a bit" off.
