Hi!

So, in ShB I decided to switch main from WAR to GNB. I really love playing GNB but I seem to have some issues with my opener, probably because of ping. I live in EU but I'm playing on an NA server so my ping is around 170/180, I think.

The opener I'm currently using is: Lightning Shot, Keen Edge, Brutal Shell, Solid Barrel, Keen Edge, No Mercy, Gnashing Fang, Jugular Rip, Sonic Break, Bow Shock, Blasting Zone, Savage Claw, Rough Divide, Abdomen Tear, Wicked Talon, Rough Divide, Brutal Shell, Solid Barrel, Burst Strike, Bloodfest, Burst Strike Burst Strike.

By the time I'm done with my ammo combo and all OGCDs that are weaved in between, my time on the Keen Edge combo has ran out. I can almost manage this opener with all the weaving on a dummy, but in an actual fight there doesn't seem to be much use trying tbh. All my OGCDs doesn't register most of the time and there's definitely no room for mitigation during the opener. It seems like my ping simply can't handle that much weaving

So I'm wondering if there is an opener without that much weaving that I could try?

I still don't feel 100% confident about how this job should be played, so I'm not really sure how a GNB opener "should" be. I'm not new to tanking, I did a lot of Ex and Savage content as WAR is SB (though mostly when stuff was outdated, cleared o8s a few weeks before ShB and never really did alphascape savage much), but I just feel a bit clunky still when I'm playing GNB.

So, sorry if my question sems a bit silly, I'm just a newbie that wants to learn how to play this job correctly
