    Yeah it's a proc class and your dps will be doggy if you don't do things right but you'll never break your combo, have 100% uptime, you can only go up. DNC can have really low moments when you mess up your dance the worst you can do on BRD is proc straight arrow twice.

    MCH is also pretty good, it's rotation is essentially melee without the positionals or limitations.
    I'd never recommend starting with BRD. It might be easy to you, but it requires constant attention to dots and procs, which is a learned skill. Besides the OP has already said they have trouble managing such things.

    That's fair.

    I don't consider 100% DoT uptime part of the class challenge, that's my bad.

    It isn't all that challenging from where you are, but this is a major challenge for new BRDs.

    I tank and heal a lot of duties and I'd say 3 out of 5 BRDs don't even apply their dots, much less refresh them with Iron Jaws--especially when they're new. Watching dots is a a learned skill and it takes a lot of extra concentration if you have ADHD, which I do, which is how I know the OP would probably struggle here.
