That leaves 2 DoTs that we need to manually reapply for 75% of the bosses HP - with Fel Flame or a direct cast of the DoT.
If we're waiting till the last possible moment to reapply them to max our DPS, what happens when haste benefits you slightly? What happens when the DoT duration has 2 seconds left, but there might be 2.4 ticks left? There's a big ??? in there as to how haste will effect the # of ticks. Again, this would make haste have very specific "spikey" values for DoT classes, as the value of haste would jump dramatically at levels of haste that grant exact #'s of additional ticks, and anything inbetween would seem meh.
