12s PFT with slight lag or without perfect rotation.

Ok once in awhile I'll get like 200-300ms instead of 60. At what point do you hit FB once PFT is done being channeled? And I don't mean done. See most instant casts you can just spam the next button while waiting for GCD. With PFT you'll interupt yourself. I find it's hard to get 3 abilities past the 5stack, 1 for RP, so 2. I find i can only get 1 extra in not always 2.

 

Obviously i'm gimping myself. Not talking PvP, strictly pve. (pvp so many other things, not worried about heat as much, sometimes saving 5 stacks until more then 1).

 

Any tips to squeeze out 2 extra attacks. I always get 1. but then there will sometimes only be like .8 sometimes 1.1/.6/.7/even as low as .3, I never see 1.5. Now maybe I won't see that becuase CD is coming right at 1.5 so when my client updates saying ability can be used it would show 1.4, just curious at what CD cut off should I wait and use PFT and what cut off I should use Dart. Obviouly to me if it's over 1sec use dart (or other ability), but if under 1sec wait if under .5 wait?

 

And this is other thing, looking at a CD, should I just go through the rotation without looking at CD? Always hit those 2 extra attacks?

I would have asked this question in the Guide so that we can continue to bump it but meh. It depends on energy situation. Lag issues are going to happen. What you dont' want is to add an extra attack after it comes off CD. If you have .8 seconds left, than put in an attack, but if it's already off CD than don't put in an attack. That generally is what works for me.

 

If it's under .5 seconds, I will generally pop a cd, or Overload, and then use PFT as it comes off.
