Shadowbringer: Summoner Changes Discussion

This is better advice than the whole notion of "just clip" while AoEing. Be efficient with your weaves, make it count. Yes doubles suck if you clip from latency already, but it's always going to be better than clipping hardcast outbursts with the sole exception being if the small sliver of time is the difference between actions landing and not being overkill.

Gotta cast that Ruin II when tank chain pulls 9 mobs, it's sure as hell going to make a lot of difference (actually no, you are being inefficient and losing out on a lot of DPS). An outburst with the ruination effect hitting say 5 mobs accounts for 450 potency. You don't want to waste an entire GCD that could be doing 450 potency for one that will do 180 potency just so that you can weave your painflares or EAs. But whatever, you can keep casting your Ruin IIs against 5+ mobs.

You missed the point about being efficient with doubles with meaningful ogcds. But I'm not surprised gcd efficiency is such a lost concept.
