This looks like at least all misses during the cycle are accounted for as you already stated. Going back to the rotation in a perfect world you would lose 1 Second and 30 Energy in case of a missed rip. This would let you drop to 10 Energy after the second Rip to and let you powershift if you are using the current macro's. So basically you lose 1 Second of perfect rotation. |
Again, in that thread they only discuss misses in respect to combo point generation and total energy consumption. It does not account for time lost on Mangle or Rip uptime that I can see.
After you Rip the second time, an energy tick will occur before you can powershift. Even if you do powershift, by time 2 GCD pass you will almost guaranteed to have missed the first tick of Rip (especially considering the slight travel time of Mangle that enables "Super-Rips").
0.0 tick 70
0.5 Rip (miss) 40
1.5 Rip (hit) 10
2.0 tick 30
2.5 shift 40
3.5 Rip tick ***
3.5 Mangle 5
OR
0.0 tick 70
0.5 Rip (miss) 40
1.5 Rip (hit) 10
2.0 tick 30
3.5 Rip tick
4.0 tick 50
4.5 Mangle 15
