Is it best to delay the GCD in order to get your DOT back up or should you fire off an attack and lose 1.5 seconds of DOT uptime?

Any dot that is applied with a damage increase(like raging strikes) can not be reapplied without the same damage buff or one of more potency. You have to let it fall off before you can apply the dot without rageing strikes. The effect is the same with non-stacking buffs aswell.
