    I was throwing out random suggestions, but you'd basically waste it on ogcd quietus. Could always have Bloodspiller with a 20 blood gauge cost, so to prevent gauge overflowing during non burst rotation.

    But someone that understands a mechanic and stops dying to it will obviously see an improvement to his DPS, even if it's a tank spamming rage of halone in tank stance. And the next step after mastering a mechanic (which isn't hard to do most of the time) is to optimize your rotation around it to get more out of that part of the battle, and end the fight faster to avoid enrage, that applies to every class in this game. Once a fight has been cleared, you can plan around it really easily before entering because it's completely scripted. Your DPS can only go up, being proof of your performance. A dude that keeps dying to mechanics but has ridiculously high dps sounds like a very rare scenario.

    And you can do that without a parser to attain a number high enough so you're undoubtedly pulling your weight.

    I think the main issue here is just a numbers thing, quietus as an offgcd is just too much potency in aoe, while being a little weird to be using in single target. having DP buffed in potency and be similar in use to shinten I think would solve the issue
