    True, but since it's a 10 sec window instead of 20, it'll probably be harder to miss so... I kinda like the change. Well see how it ggoes. = D

    It's quite the opposite actually. With old IR you had to fit 4 gcds into a 10 second window(8 gcds in 20 seconds). In new IR you need to fit 5 gcds into 10 seconds. So not only missing just one gcd is an even worse dps loss, it is also more likely to happen due to an arbitrary reason such as lag.

    Not really. Old IR we had to weave in 2 combo hits so it was just as tight. Tried néw IR this morning. Hitting 5 fc is easy and no need to weave in 2 combos. It's much, much easier dude. And before, ud have to prep the burst with a hs before start.

    6 Fell Cleaves, Maim and Path is 8 gcds. Unless you somehow had gauge for 8 Fells in there, despite using Upheaval and 2 Onslaughts?
    Never said it's "harder" though(I mean, it's just mashing one button for 10 seconds ffs), only that it's more likely to get screwed up by lag. The whole point of the update is to make the job easy. The post chain I was replying to was just about how it's even more dependent on the IR window now.

    While I'm a healer nowadays, the changes make me want to dust off my tank alt and take her for a spin.
