    Perfect Balance is an "Oops" button (or potentially to faster ramp up dps), it has very little to do with burst. 9 out of 10 matches I use PB to squeeze more damage into the tank at the end for commendation consideration, rarely used at any critical point in the fight.

    For Burst: See the 4-5 Off GCD's at your disposal.

    I usually use it for burst and to get 3 stacks of GL early. It's either that or take 20 seconds worth of GCDs to get 3 stacks.

    Which actually annoys me greatly, since Miasma is so broken.

    You are aware Axe Kick gives instant GL3, right? PB isn't your only source for racking up Greased Lightning quickly.

    Well, I'm willing to admit when I've made a mistake, I basically skimmed over the description of it. I knew that it gave Pacify but I never read enough of the skill to know it did that ><.
