Oh, I see. I misread the last bit.

But DoT management just for the sake of having something else to do wouldn't be that great really. Variant Spirit Dart is a button you can press in any weave window with no loss, meaning you can reapply it in advance if you are about to enter a period when all of your weave windows will be spoken for. If you actually had a DoT as part of your job action set, there would be a loss associated with applying it too early or too late, which would cause complaints when people get annoyed that they need to reapply their DoT early or late because it's going to fall off during a period of weave saturation.

It's all good!

But that's what I'm saying.. a 30sec dot that's oGCD with no cooldown for GNB. The current 2 dots are 1 gcd an 1 ogcd and used only during the no mercy windows as they're 1min cooldowns lasting 15/30sec.

Having a 30sec ogcd with no cooldown would allow us to keep a dot up during normal rotation phases and keep use it during no mercy as well to snapshot the damage increase. Which would help with down time from the boss between lighting shot attacks.
