Do SMN and BRD need 2 DoTs?

[Mhaeric]

I believe you’re missing the point entirely so I will lay out my entire argument in simple terms.

Caustic Bite and Stormbite do not need to be separate buttons are they are only used together, or refreshed simultaneously with Iron Jaws.
As such, there would be no significant changes to BRD gameplay (besides 1 extra heavy shot in the opener) if Iron Jaws applied both DoTs instead of refreshing their durations.

I believe that 3 buttons existing to do 1 button’s job is bad job design, so I want either:
1) The 3 buttons consolidated into 1. This is the boring solution.
2) The debuff durations to not be identical. This is the better solution, as it gives Caustic and Storm more uses than just ‘apply in the opener and unbind’

That is completely different than what you suggested earlier. Make up your mind.

Would removing Wind Bite and Miasma (and adjusting potencies to make up for the lost dot) actually affect level 80 gameplay at all?
