I chose BRD for swift gameplay, if I wanted to cast I would have chosen a Mage.

I hate the cast bar as MCH, I don't know if I get the proc in time so I'm always waiting an extra second to see if I get it, meaning I lose a second of gcd rotation every attack.
And whats the point of having rapid fire when gcd is faster than procs?

Try popping reload, rapid fire, and then do your 1-2-3 combo. Your 3 is not gonna deal the bonus damage from the proc.
This drives me crazy, and it kills all my hopes of maybe they will change gcd to 1,5 seconds in the future

If you've played an actual caster job (i.e. BLM) then you will see how ridiculous you sound. People have been dealing with these issues for 2 years, it in the end, it's the way they want the class to play. In fact, over time, they just make BLM less and less seamless.
