    For viper I hope it has an extremely short GCD. Burst classes are mostly the most fun when you are forced to constantly press buttons to keep uptime, there is a lot of similarities to how reaper looks for now but I hope that the rotation is not as fixed.

    Gameplay wise it seems you have a lot of different options to choose from at any given time to continue your combos. If the choice arent completely obvious to make this could be interesting.

    Just hoping it wont devolve into "always press the buttons in this order to maximize dps".
    I dunno, the reawakening combo has continuation and there are multiple instances of mandatory double-weaves during the regular rotation seen throughout. Seems pretty frantic to me. Maybe not at nin levels, but definitely higher than sam, mnk and rpr, possibly drg.

    From what I found elsewhere, they have a haste buff to keep up most of the time that gives them a 2s gcd. The awakening combo appears to be 2s baseline and affected by this buff so it runs at 1.66 gcd.
