If you don't land your initial shieldslam in that flow chart in my guild, you'd be screwed.

I'm not saying this to troll, but you need to understand that max tps is as important to maximizing your dps as getting 2 sunders 5 seconds sooner. Not every class benefits from sunder. The extra sunder benefits for at most 1-2 shieldslams and revenges are not a threat benefit vs using your cool-downs appropriately.
