    What is your opener, or rather, do you have a video of you testing out Bard at 60? I would like to know how you're dealing with cooldowns/rotations/move priorities before thinking more into what you said about WM's viability .

    Tried out both Krietors and a standard IR opener. Not really sure about the best opener for WM but I tried a few with blowing all buffs before your dots, weaving your buffs, or a mix of both.

    That's exactly why I'm asking for the WM opener, not the 2.0 Bard opener (sorry I didn't clarify). The main reason why is that you're comparing one that's been tested and optimized with years of reasoning behind it, vs. an opener you think is good based upon a few days of trial and error. Not saying you're a bad player by any means, it's why I asked for some video evidence so I can personally see what you're doing.

    Oh I'm sure there's still some room for optimization, but realistically, you're not going to suddenly get 50 more dps just by changing 1 or 2 oGCDs.
