    What does mobility have anything to do with WAR not being able to tank 4 Stack Dread or Double Dread in Turn 4? The issue is that WAR straight up can't handle large amounts of damage before being able to heal itself up or have the healers top it off. That is the only issue. Brutal Swing animation isn't anything specific to WAR, it applies to all classes and any ability that has an immediate effect but stupidly long animation (see: Hallowed Ground, Benediction, Leg Sweep, Spirit's Within for silence, etc.)

    You do realize the same could be said for you right? I haven't seen you provide any evidence to support your claim that WAR is superior in DPS to PLD. Instead of brushing off Kitru's math with burden of proof bull crap how about you show your own math or parses.

    Peoples reading comprehension disabilities always make people chuckle, now next time, when you read something, let it sink in. I assume you either read my entire post as you quoted the last paragraph OR skipped to the last paragraph and missed the part where I was talking about the long animation on Brutal Swing.

    Either way, GJ......

    I do love a good Ninja edit. We have already played this game months ago and I can't be bothered doing it again with the ilk of yourself.

    How about you put your money where your mouth us and show us some parses?

    I seem to be rubbing nerves raw with the request of real time parses, I wonder why this is?

    Mainly because you're being massively hypocritical. Apparently *we* need parses to prove what the theory that's based upon the fundamental math that the game is based upon and has been refined time and time again, but you don't need them to prove your largely unsupported anecdotal evidence that is regularly contradicted by other people's anecdotal evidence.

    You seem to be unable to grasp the whole concept of "burden of proof". We've already brought proof in the form of theory to support our claims and anecdotal evidence. If you want to step it up, *you're* supposed to be the one to either match or exceed the quality of evidence (and be ready to have it be publicly vetted since, if you continue to bring up evidence of unequal comparison, you're not really looking to prove anything except the fact that a strong tank can generate more enmity than a weak tank or that a tank optimized for enmity generation can pulled aggro off of a tank optimized for survivability).
