And we can't even just go into the FoF burst, we have to do a 3 GCD lead up (or a 5 GCD lead up if you want to do double Divine Might Holy Spirit).
    It looks like it's not that strict though. You can basically fill any of the extra FoF GCDs with anything--including Fast Blade or Riot Blade--as long as you FoF promptly every 60s and you don't break your 1-2-3 such that it costs you a Divine Might. They made it really hard to do crap damage. And even when you can cram two Mighty Holy Spirits and a Royal Authority into a single FoF, the funny "just do a bunch of weak Holy Spirits" rotation still sometimes pulls ahead.
