When to use Dragon Burst
Dragon Burst is a sustained-DPS pick — 5.5 power per second of cooldown means it earns its slot through uptime rather than burst, and rewards builds that keep the Pal alive in extended fights. It also applies burn, so leading the rotation with it locks the target before your bigger hitters land.
