Why the proposed 1.2 Pyrotech changes are poorly thought out

........................You can't try for a proc until after the 6 seconds are done. How have you missed out on that crucial piece of information?

Ok, is this guy serious?

Meaning proc will be between 6 and 7.75 seconds. How do you get ~50% out of that?

More predictable damage is preferred by good players, and this is what PT Pyro is getting with these changes. You will only have 3 GCDs (4.5 seconds as the other 1.5 will be the Rail Shot you use on proc) in which PPA will not benefit you, and you should be able to track 3 GCDs. Good PTs will utilize other abilities during the PPA ICD to manage heat and maximize dps.

These changes are thought out to keep some fluidity in the rotation to make things interesting without too much random feast/famine scenarios. The changes are good because it actually raises the skillcap on PT Pyro.

Flaming burst has, what, a 1 second cooldown? And you think you're not going to proc once in 6 seconds?

The real problem is, you guys know you're riding on the coattails of an OP class and you know changing that will send you back to mediocrity. Learn to throttle.

Wrong again. Global Cooldown is 1.5 seconds. An average of 2 attacks at 1.5 seconds each = 3 seconds. 6+3=9. Now are we done?

You're not factoring in rocket punch at 65%.

Nobody with more brains than their usual breakfast is not believing you're serious. Why try so hard when it is so obvious? It was fun the first time, but now you start to make a fool out of yourself...
