WHM/MNK soloing nms in abyssea is a new play style. Maybe you witnessed it prior to abyssea, in that case it's new to me.

I too have seen eva WARs soloing nms in Abyssea. I am not arguing against the case that their dmg is taking a major reduction, of course it is. And yes the nms would die quicker with a better party set up. But not everyone lives in a Bob Ross painting. They are going out and soloing KIs during the day and doing the boss fights in the evening when the rest of the LS gets on. And yes, eva tanking is not new to the scene but more jobs are able to utilize it and some are even soloing with it. And again, I admit their damage is reduced but they aren't trying to zerg something down with a huge party, they are soloing their KIs. And yes, it would go quicker with a different party setup but like I said before, not everyone lives in a Bob Ross painting.
