    Kinda wouldn't mind if GNB's Bow Shock and Sonic Break shared a CD

    One's an aoe and the other is a single target... I know one's an ability and one's a weapon skill but I do feel a little odd about them being separate skills. More-so that GNB's got enough going on, would it be the worst idea if their dot had an aoe version and a single version similar to how some of our aoe's work for other jobs?

    As you said, one's a weaponskill and ones an ogcd, they fill different purposes, in fact you can use Sonic Break to easily weave your Bow Shock during burst. Personally I like keeping the GNB burst window busy with all the weaving.

    First you want to use both as an opener no matter what, the are your dots and work great together in a mob or single target, second absolutely not, keep them off eachother we lack in some aoes at this level as it is.

    Why not just increase some of our aoe potencies and allow them to share so you don't have multiple dots to worry about?

    There's nothing "to worry about" to begin with. They're on a 1min cd for a shorter duration. You just use them on CD under the No Mercy buff every minute and that's it.

    Wrong wording on my part, rather, a smidge bit less to weave? Could also be the fact that all 3 of my hotbars absolutely packed tight and with so many attacks it has no organization x.x; Just hate realizing "oh yeah, I gotta do that dot too".

    I for one enjoy having a lot of things to weave in on Gunbreaker. Keeps the job feeling busy and fun, though I used to be a DPS main so I guess I may just be used to busy rotations.

    Same here XD. I guess it's because I process it as "its an aoe, I use aoe's only in groups" so I have to remind myself to pop that one anyways since it;s on a cd of its own. I guess I also feel like this job is already busy and I hate feeling like I missed out on some dps because I didn't pop something 2 seconds into it being off cooldown.
