GNB QoL Change:

[CKNovel]

My issue is the third cartridge that came with the two cartridge cost of Double Down. GNB went from, on the low end, only needing one cartridge for an No Mercy burst to a mandatory three or your whole rotation is borked. This means that you spend most of your time 1-2-3ing for your next NM burst instead of using your cool new Hypervelocity after Burst Strike in between Gnashing combos. Not to mention how out of luck you are if you even think about spending a single gauge not on Gnashing or in an NM window. This is not only boring, but clunky, and an annoyance at times. Being forced to build gauge and being unable to freely spend it as you used to seems counterproductive to the job design. Not only that, but it throws what used to be a well flowing rotation for a loop when you consider that you cannot end a burst on Burst Strike as the 20sec NM means the following Hypervelocity will not be buffed.

I do agree with the 1 2 3 part, good thing is that every 30 seconds there is Gnashing Fang.
However, I borked my rotations, many, many times yet didn't have much trouble with Double Down.

If you really want a fix, you can simply adjust Bloodfest at 60s (And maybe only giving 2 Cartridges) so you are garanteed to get a Double down in your No Mercy window.
I don't like this idea because all No Mercy windows would be the same, but it's the simplest QoL you can ask for if Cartridges is your problem.

Making a button solely exist for another button is just button bloat imo. The 90sec Bloodfest at least means you aren't using it every NM at least. So if you wanted to reduce it to 60sec, just combine them at that point, make Bloodfest give two gauge and turn into Double Down after or something similar.

At that point you might as well remove Bloodfest and make Double Down cost no cartridges.

I was stating that if the person wanted to make BF 60sec, to make it still give two gauge and turn into a free double down. I'm open to better ideas though.
