The cost for switching stance is a big concern for me when it comes to opener. I think it's going to either be quick unchained (tomahawk > eye combo > unchained > block combo > deliverance) to minimize the gauge cost, or the current "meta" opener (tomahawk > equilibrium > deliverance) at the cost of losing a big self heal and hp cushion from defiance.

Even if we're not pulling bosses to do the 6 cleaves opener we'd have to build up 100 gauge, which takes at the very least 4 full combos (eye path path eye berserk), and holding your opener burst for 30s into the fight doesn't seem like a good idea since you'll miss out on a lot of raid buffs. Has anyone come up with opener examples yet?
