Heroic Opportunities (HO) is a big deal for a Dirge when not equipped idealy or not in the ideal group to buff particular character modifiers. Depending on the group build and/or lower quality items equipped, Bravo's Dance can add a solid amount of noticeable DPS gain.
Tarven's and Verlien's are excellent abilities to be individually macroed with Lucky Break at the beginning. Lucky Break is a 10 second recast so you only need two macros at most to start the Heroic Opportunity (HO) wheel. Lucky Break has zero casting time and zero recovery time; therefore, the cast of Lucky Break has zero affect on DPS. Even though Lucky Break is the first to be cast in the macro, do not flag it as the primary command in the macro because more important to notice the recast time of Tarven's and Verlien's. Tarven's macro is good filler when there is an extremely small window till autoattack since it inflicts damage. Verlien's spell recast is lengthy and it has a quite long duration so this spell does not need to be cast exactly when it is available unless trigging a HO wheel.
