    Any button you spent building the Decimate could've been spent Overpowering. So let's say you use 3 GCDs building up a Decimate and then you Decimate, that's 4 total GCDs you could've spent pressing OP, which would've given you higher overall potency.

    I'm sure that works when you have DPS that actually know what they were doing and get groups down fast.

    Either way, the third decimate is a potency lost, better to double decimate and overpower

    Agreed. Double decimate is good times. three's a crowd though.


    On the general topic: in my experience people who say war isn't complex tend to be the sort of people that think str tanking is bad and that theyre helping their healer by stacking vit. they don't maintain maim or eye and just spam bb and maybe ib. sometimes. half of them spam OP and the other half are scared to use op at all because they don't like seeing their tp dip below 700, let alone 800.

    it's fair to mention that people who play at this level actually *are* helping their healer by stacking vit, since they don't mitigate properly and synergizing burst damage with bloodbath uptime is crazy hoo-haa speak they don't have time for.
