    one question, how do you keep enmity low ?i find its easy to break enmity just by using bb combo
    Have to use storm's combo more often at the start but as the fight goes on the enmity isn't an issue and you can use the normal rotation using BB combo.

    WAR DPS is viable but not really ideal. I ran as DPS when we downed ADS for the first time, and we were getting to him with 6.5-7 minutes remaining and when we killed him we had 1 minute before the enrage timer. I also DPS'd on Titan for my first relic weapon.

    Biggest thing is to respec all your points to STR and use DPS accessories. That way you can play as a sort of mediocre DPS on WAR rather than a mediocre tank.

    I don't believe you could hit 146 dps with Ifrit axe and also be able to use the BB combo in the fight. If you were at such a high dps you would likely pull within a few BB combos. I DPS fairly frequently on my WAR and I am relegated to SE combo due to the risk of pulling.

    Don't really care if you believe me... We had 4 people with parsers and each one was showing me at 146 dps +- 3. But thank you for quoting me, and sorry you have such a hard time dealing with your enmity - maybe it's your MT.

    So guess my 15/15 setup is good since i can swap between the two roles more easily LOL. But yeah this is nice to hear and frankly i have started to find threat harder(even somewhat) with people much better geared(no darklight yet as well as others pull first) so i was looking at getting some dps trinkets.

    I average 167 dps with relic +1 and tanking accessories (not dps) so 146 isn't unbelievable. On some bosses I've broken 200 dps. I don't pull threat either if I start with storms combo. if you are pulling agro from using bb after a few mins of fighting, then the MT sucks.
