All it takes to make the opener less cluttered is to take some of those oGCDs from there... and put them somewhere else.

Which can be done with as little as just adding an MP cost to Shadowbringer and increasing Shadowbringer's potency by Edge's in compensation, thereby reducing the number of attacks that have to be fit inside the 2-minute burst by 2, which then allows space enough for defensives. Done.

It does not require turning most of DRK's oGCDs into GCDs.
