1) already mentioned: Imp.Steady proccs used for Aimed instead of Chim. (your rotation changes form chim-aimed-4steady and so on to something like chim-ai-3SS-chim-ss-aim-2ss-chim-2ss-aim-ss-chim-3ss-ai .{[chimera moves up 1 position pro rotation])
2) higher viper uptime cause of the higher manacosts (I checked it for the standard fight length, with Chim.Shot glyph you will come out at around 7% viper uptime).
3) you have to give up either serpent glyph (no way), hawk (which is buffing itself by ~10% extra uptime) or steady glyph. and if you want to switch you still have the kill shot glyph.
4) at a 6min fight (360sec) you will increase your chim shot rate just from 36 to 40 (if you have a 9sec rotation) or 45 shots (using chim shot whenever ready) but losing 1steady per rotation, leading to a lower impSS uptime and lower dmg.
