"I need 2 minutes for Raging Strikes"

[Sensu]

Boss takes a good cleave at the rest of the group if we don't start with quelling, and we use it multiple times during the fight.

Really? Well, in our group no one uses it at the start and we open with all Cooldowns and Foe Requiem, sometimes pots. If the boss turns to cleave, then sorry, but your tank is definately doing something wrong (especially when a SMN should have to use it, lol). Or maybe he's got the right idea, but not executing it right.

Anyway, I agree with the Cooldowns needing to be "reset" when you're in between pulls. It's just alot better for progression, especially when you're getting used to a fight and sometimes you push the phases and sometimes you don't. This way you can always reach full potential.

I can certainly appreciate the idea of a CD reset on a full wipe, absolutely! I use a lot of CD buffs for my WAR, especially in difficult fights where healers are stretched to their limits. CDs like Foresight can be invaluable in the right circumstances.

[SinisterIsBack]

It would definitely be welcomed, I hate looking at battle voice on CD for the start of T9. Its not needed but this is a quality of life thing that shouldn't be shunned away.

Also, a raging strikes could be the difference between 3/4/5 meteors

The DPS can also simply be less trigger happy and wait for the boss to be positioned. As most often snatching would occur as a boss is still being moved towards e.g. the back of the room on T9.

The moments during fights where it's needed, it's going to be off cooldown anyway. Otherwise you wouldn't be able to use it at the start of the fight to begin with. And on the primary target it's really not a necesarry skill to be used at all if the DPS doesn't pull early. If quelling strikes is required on the boss during the course of the fight then either there's a very large discrepancy in gear between the tank and DPS or the tank needs to improve rotation (by a lot).

It's odd how you're trying to analyse our strategies, while I'm trying to make a general point. You could easily apply it to early 2.4 groups wanting to pull through final coil. It's also related to stuff like Aetherflow or Warrior CD's. Not only Quelling or Raging Strikes are the point.

[Grotesque]

In case of T9, we never waited except for aetherflow, because it doesn't matter how fast you push through phase 1, as long as the cooldowns are ready for golems. If there are 4 or 5 meteors doesn't matter at all. Yes, a forth beak is not nice, but then you have some really slacky dps. The most annoying part is progressing through the Divebomb phase, it takes almost 9-10 minutes per try to reach it, so you don't have that much tries on a 2,5h evening.

AMEN. WTB "Megaflare Save Point"

This would be very beneficial to healers as well. As WHM, because Benediction has like a 2 second animation (I could grumble about that, but I've already made threads in the past...) often times I'll have used it toward the end of a wipe whether on a dead person or no and it ends up on cooldown at the start of the next attempt...which is gives me less resources.
