No Job Stone

I can understand people going as marauders(with the right accessories a marauder can put up as much if not more dps than a bard thanks to the cross class skills), but I can't think of any reason, short of just doing it to challenge yourself, that running as a gladiator would be a good idea, as the cross class skills wouldn't make up for the loss of sword oath

Wait wait wait wait. I shouldn't have shield oath on to reduce 20% dmg at all times? I shouldnt have defiance on so i cant get my Inner Beast?

MY TANK LIFE HAS BEEN A LIE!!!!

Yeah because you don't need it, higher DPS is a greater party contribution than mitigating damage that doesn't need to be mitigated.

It's because they are stupid players. Nothing more, nothing less.

So... lumping all of the mobs into a big pile for the two i109 BLMs I typically run with to absolutely nuke into oblivion isn't a greater contribution to DPS than my non-sword-oath damage? That's news to me.

I'd hate to make a healer try to heal me through that without Shield Oath on.

I'd hate to try even attempting to hold hate through it.

You can do that in sword oath dude, and healing is a snooze on that level of content. Holding hate is easy.

Okay I'll go serious mode, the discussion is about the oddity of tanks not using job crystals while tanking so yeah.

Were they having problems with enmity?
