MagSorc Rotation: Prey then Pet, or Pet then Prey?

Instinctively it looks like it should be pet then prey, since pet lasts 8 seconds (4 pulses) and prey lasts 6 seconds... However many rotation videos/guides seems to do the opposite. Is there something I'm missing?

It should be pet and then prey, otherwise you would loose a second of up-time on the prey as they pay has not started to pulse yet.Edited by rosendoichinoveb17_ESO on June 29, 2017 7:00PM5 -

✭✭✭✭✭ALWAYS pet then prey. We cast prey to boost the pet damage, therefore, we went as much uptime of both in a rotation.
If you go Pet then prey, your pet will tick for 6/8 seconds with prey active (3 pulses). If you go prey then pet, they overlap for 5 seconds (2 pulses).
Also, in any circular rotation, you want to cast DoTs in descending order of duration, beginning with longest and ending with the shortest.5
