THF always has been and always will be about TH. Nothing will ever change that fact. SE has failed at every turn to make Enmity a role worth bringing a job for, the only job that even comes close to being viable for that role is SCH due to it having the power necessary to facilitate other roles as well. They've also shown no interest in making THF a better DD than other jobs by any meaningful degree as to outgrow that very apparent restriction. Lastly, evasion tanking isn't a thing that's even reasonably possible thanks to how much Accuracy NMs have, so that's just flat out useless even though it's THF's best stat.
At the end of the day, I think THFs would be better off clinging to TH and asking for more ways to make it useful than asking for exclusivity in their damage dealing capacities when up till now SE has all but come out and plainly said that THF exists only to make RNGesus bless you a bit more often with the gear your heart desires. I mean, look at the Job Points thing today, the "Gifts", THF gets a TH Proc Rate increase of 5%(which likely means 5% of the original rate, yay minor upgrade!) after obtaining a whopping 80 Job Point upgrades on the Job. I wish THF and DNC were closer to one another so that Mandau was something to care about, sadly, it's not, it feels like it's just holding DNC back by making their only RME weps super difficult to obtain whilst making THFs no more powerful, just less bleh by compare.
