Is it reasonably possible to clear savage without Synced Burst windows?

I don't understand the argument that syncing burst windows makes PFing harder. It is commonly understood that you press your raid buff on GCD 3, with some exceptions by class, and some exceptions by fight. If there is confusion you can simply say "gcd 2 or 3 for burst?" and then you know. After the first buff comes out gcd 3 every other buff comes out exactly on cooldown.

You dont understand the argument because it is pure gibberish dreamed up by someone who has not the slightest clue about savage. It reads like someone is looking like a fool in a discord arguement and is stretching for backup.

This is the second moody message you've posted. Why are you so upset.
Ask a lala to give you a hug.
Or stop banging your head against PF, what ever it is that's got your 2Bs in a twist.

Also no. No one is discussing the actual XIV game in discords. I'm not exaggerating. Perhaps another reason why I'm here.

It's a fair point and does take some explanation. As I've already said I have no idea about savage, and frankly this is showing me I'm missing nothing. It doesn't really sound like a 'game' and I've no interest in mounts.
But I hear nothing but how absolutely hopeless PF is fit savage. So I wondered if it was because synced buff windows are harder if not a static with tight openers on voice. But I don't expect that's a reason either. My original post is one huge I don't know, question?

I'd played this game for four years and I'm not 100% sure we are taking about the same buff. We're not talking about tinctures now are we? No I dint think so.

As for 2/3... all the people I enjoyed playing with will be WAY more or of sync than just one or two GCDs after a single rotation. Most will be doing a 90% (only) proper rotation they worked out for themselves and that's just in a normal trial or Expert roul. I myself refuse to make the effort to make gap closer part of my rotation. I tried it for a bit and the job just got irritating and flat. It was just me and boss following our own independent scripts.
If we wipe engage because I dropped some gap closers so save them up then game is taking piss.

I'm still not clear on if Synced party Buffs, and people timing their bursts to those, are two separate discussions?
I had assumed you time your raid buff to yourself and that's it. Maybe you stay in sync maybe you don't.
(And this is why to me PF send extra challenging. How the heck do you get back in sync with no voice, a shit blowing up everywhere)

Do you know what a cooldown is? Are you aware that most buff abilities have a cooldown of 2 minutes?
