    Which isn't to say block is useless. There are many times for me where I have 60 gauge and enough time for 2 combos before a berserk. As long as slashing and the eye buff are up with 60 gauge left the bb combo is preferred to use first with eye after to get to 100 gauge before berserk.
    it would only be a dps loss if eye fell because the 20% damage increase amounts to much more than the added potency of butcher. however in this situation i used as an example i never drop my eye buff, as i said in the post when susano becomes targetable again i still have 14 seconds left of my eye buff which is why i like to have him when he drops so i can get eye up on the sword right before he comes down i clip into my next eye with 1 second left on the buff every time with a few runs where i clip at 2 seconds remaining before i refresh. so the added butchers potency is in this case just that, added potency.

    But in that situation, (60 BG and time for two combos) you should:

    Path Combo, (now 90 BG)
    Eye Combo, using Onslaught after maim, (100 BG after Maim > 80 BG after Onslaught used off-gcd immediately after Maim > 90 BG after you finish the combo and reapply Eye)
    Path Combo, (100 BG after maim, Inner Release brings you to 80 BG, finish Path to bring you back to 100 BG)

    Well that would be nice but in that scenario except I'm about to use ir so I need eye to be they combo I use before so eye doesn't fall after
