Perhaps i should clarify what i ment by "jumping the gun", seems ive confused some people. i usually open anything im not planning on double pulling simply with a tomahawk, but as of lately ive had brd that rush in full buff and just unload when i get 1 single tomahawk off. even with a relic, that doesnt produce some massive chunk of instant emnity. anything else i do outside of overpower to produce chunks of emnity is at least 2 GCD before its noticable (heavy > skull sunder, for example). when i said "jump the gun" i ment it as people unloading their highest, buffed hits right out the door. if i even have 5sec to get emnity before they fire off the big hits, i lose basically nothing, unless its as has been mentioned.. an early heal/regen prefight. sorry if i caused any confusion with the wording of it all.
