How to Dragoon Per Second: A DPS Paradigm

[Thendiel]

Here's a theoretical model for Geirskogul use that I threw together, assuming a GCD of exactly 2.5 seconds.

HT -> ID-Dis-[BotD]CT -F&C -> [Geirskogul] Phleb -> TT-VT-FT-WhT (17.5 seconds remaining) -> HT -> ID-Dis-CT-F&C (20 seconds remaining) -> Phleb -> TT-VT-FT-WhT (22.5 seconds remaining) -> HT -> ID-Dis-CT-F&C [Geirskogul] (15 seconds remaining)-> Phleb -> TT-VT (one minute has transpired; new BotD is available) FT [Geirskogul] (BotD expires) WhT -> (entire pattern repeats)

While this squeezes in 3 Geirskoguls in just a little over a minute, it also involves BotD downtime at the very end of the move set (between Wheeling Thrust and the next Dis-CT opening for BotD). But it seems like there might be some awkwardness in reapplications of BotD in general, since the buff (I suppose) would have to wear off before you reach Disembowel or Vorpal Thrust in your rotation. I'm not sure how we'll work around that.

Off the cuff, I hypothesize that a GCD of 2.3 seconds or less might enable us to better optimize Blood of the Dragon, since we could reach the final Wheeling Thrust and extend the cooldown timer before 60 seconds have transpired.
