    Detailing different strategies of tanking doesn't change that.
    No. Enmity has nothing to do with considering how effective a tank is. That's just a fact.

    The only thing that matters is did you survive, and did you win. If I"m with a healer, a buffer, and some pups and SMNs, how much enmity does my pet need to generate? Answer: Not a lot

    The overall quantity of enmity is irrelevant. The only thing that matters is that it's more than what the other party members are generating. I don't care if your BST can generate 87324687324687324 points of enmity and my puppet can only generate 7324687324687324 points. As long as nobody died and as long as he kept the mob's attention, the number is irrelevant. I really don't give 2 farts how much enmity you generate.

    The actual amount of enmity only matters in attention-getting contests (I won't risk using the more popular terms on this forum). I'm really not even sure what the point of your comments are. Maybe you want to argue BST is the *best* pet job for tanking. While I don't agree, that's something that can be debated. At issue here is the simple fact of whether or not other jobs can do it and the answer is yes.
