It'll definitely tell you if you'll be able to pass the enrage unless you panic performing mechanics and mess up your rotation (which I'll admit, I do have a problem with the first few times practice runs of a mechanic).

I imagine it would be incredibly useful for console players too, as they can now figure out their DPS (and it's more accurate than ACT with its guesswork done with DoT damage).
