Not that it changes anything, but you can reduce MB to 6.25 seconds (see above post) 1.5 second cast with 100% haste would be .75 seconds with a 5.5 second cd which becomes 6.25 seconds. Of course that is the period of time between the start of one MB and the start of a second MB.
I think I read the relevant posts on clipping and the dps increase, but I am trying to figure out exactly why. With only a spell rotation of MFs, clipping doesn't actually do anything.
2 * (3 seconds channels of MF) = same dmg output as 3* (2 second channels of MF).
I THINK what clipping does allow is to keep all your other spells on cooldown, SWD, SWP, VT, and MB. Without clipping you will have more spells sitting without cooldowns which will lower dps. But on that theory, why not also clip after 1st tick if you see a CD up?
(And you shouldn't clip after 2nd tick if other spells are still on their CD, or dot still running).
Btw, for people with awkward pauses between cooldowns, i wonder if they have tried getting a 1 MF tick and then casting a new spell. For a non-hasted situation that would be 1 second of casting, with significant haste ratings, this could be measured in fractions of seconds.
I apologize if this conclusion has already been either confirmed or shot down.
