    I really don't think this is a problem. With a stationary target on which I can pull off 3 Geirskoguls per minute without losing BotD, I level out at around 1000-1100 DPS sustained. Without BotD, that drops to a still very respectable 900 or so. This is more about knowing when stuff will happen in fights and preparing accordingly - if I know that in about five seconds I won't have anything to hit for a little while, I'll hold that last Geirskogul so that I'll have the 10s left I need to keep going once a target reappears.

    I will agree that it's made me understand why MNKs have been going on about their stacks all this time though, and I now also suspect a conspiracy where tanks who do not immediately run to the next pull are deliberately ruining my DPS.

    @Seekified, as an ex-MNK I find myself falling into those old bad habits lol.. "I can totally eat this AoE so I don't drop BotD/GL3" or "Yeah.. That NIN's got those adds.." or my favorite.. "This Tank seems like he's paying attention.. I think I can land my Spineshatter right as he pulls so I won't lose BotD"
