I'm definitely pressing buttons early so they queue properly. I'm not optimizing enough when I have to dodge stuff, but when standing still I am not waiting 3 seconds to push the next button. It would be way too boring. I even hate it when people do that. I also try to use oGCDs as soon as possible. I'm not perfect with that, but hitting only one single oGCD like 1-2 seconds later than I should have shouldn't make me almost fail the dummy. I only use RDM in normal mode content and from what I've noticed I sometimes just press a wrong button. For example I wanted to press Impact or another proc and accidentally pressed Jolt. Or I accidentally press Verfire instead of Verstone, but I always notice that immediately. It doesn't happen so often and not when I'm really concentrating while trying to beat the dummy. But I still can only beat with max. 3 seconds left. And I don't know why. No matter how I practice, I can't improve as DPS.
