    I want to discuss with that statement, actually when u think of it, its opposite? laggy mudra with 2.0 cooldown only means you will be clipping your GCD skills more becouse u have less time to cast mudras.

    With lets say 2.15 GCD it only means u hit slower but harder (lets put aside dot/buff timers for now) becouse it only means that u have your poins in other stat than SkS, you have that extra .15 when u cast mudras so you have a lil more time for it, thus clipping less of your GCD skills.

    Hoever, things get more complicated when u think not about 3 min parse but about whole 11 min fight (most new coils hard enrage is around 11 mins), what is more worth it? having hitting harder to save your GCD clipping and having lil longer cooldown, or putting out (60/2 compared to 60/2.15) 2 skills more every 1 min for totall of 22 skills more during whole fight.

    ALSO, slower SkS helps you when u have to switch target, or avoid AoE becouse u have that extra lil time to get back to your target due to longer GCD. No coil is as static as dummy fight so we have to take that into consideration.
    486 SkS is a LARGE investment in SkS consuming more than of your extra stats (whats left after caping acc)

    Biggest question for me now is is it worth it putting our 486 SkS, right now i have 2.1 and i feel like cooldowns are putting out great for me almost no clipping, and i have no gear to get down to 2.15~ and see how harder i hit to compare parses.

    Coz for now i only could test it half naked equipping off all my SkS equip to see if i would clip off dots/buffs but nothing of sort appeared, need longer parses maybe.

    Idealy would be to test exact same rotations with same ilvl but one guy with high SkS and other one with high det.
