    My bad, went back to check the sks tiers. The actual number was somewhere around 2300 sks (2.2 gcd). The number comes from WF stopping to register dmg taken around 1 sec left on duration, so 3 x 1,5s + 2 x gcd must be below 9s for the gcd to register. I don't know if anyone's done real life testing on this so you might actually need more sks, but you're certainly not hitting 6 gcds in WF at 2,35s gcd. Test it for yourself and count the dmg you do and what WF does.

    I don't know anyone who has counted frame perfect animation lock times and they do vary between abilities, but 0,70-0,75s is commonly used as the standard approximation among theorycrafters.

    And that's precisely why those classes don't double weave or avoid double weaving whenever possible. MNKs for example only double weave during Riddle of Fire, which makes their gcd longer.

    No need to OH means no need to FT or reattach GB, so less timers to worry about and less ogcds to use.

    I think SE has said they're designing the game to be played at 200 ms, but I don't have a source for that.
