Look at the DPS/enmity calcs in my signature. The higher enmity off of Butcher's Block is drastically inhibited by the fact that one-third of our rotation is devoted to attacks that don't have high enmity modifiers, not to mention Defiance having a larger penalty to damage. It takes all of the WAR multipliers to make up for that loss of high enmity modifiers.

If Storm's Path were turned into a fundamental part of the WAR rotation (BB>BB>SP), replacing Storm's Eye would drop average enmity potency per GCD (assuming 2x enmity mod for tank stances; yes, I know it's wrong, but as long as the PLD and WAR stances are the same, it doesn't matter) from 1403.18 to 1290.10, compared to a PLD's 1355.78. It's *just* outside of the "within 5% of each other" balance point that most MMOs strive for (it would drop WAR damage to 306.57, which, compared to the PLD 297.73, is well within the 5%).
