    Brief comparison of 5 minute runs:

    MNK who delayed OGCDs for maximizing DPS:
    8 Elixir Field casts, 14 targets hit, 36,000 damage total
    4 Howling Fist casts, 9 targets hit, 17,8000 damage total

    MNK who spammed OGCDs on CD:
    8 Elixir Field casts, 10 targets hit, 21,300 damage total (~40+ DPS less than the MNK who delayed)
    4 Howling Fist casts, 4 targets hit, 7,500 damage total (~20+ DPS less than the MNK who delayed)

    As you can see, both Monks received an equal number of uses and all uses hit the boss. The only difference was, the guy who delayed his OGCDs to hit adds inadvertently helped out his raid members (less damage spent on adds is more damage on the boss) while also boosting his own individual DPS.
