Warrior Tanks: Maximizing DPS Output

[Kitru]

However, I like the idea of stacking as many DoT's as possible on an enemy, because it's like having any extra person doing damage over the course of the fight.

That's so untrue it hurts. DoTs aren't an extra benefit that classes have on top of their existing damage. If it were true, summoners would be broken as hell because a majority of their damage is based off of DoTs. DoTs are baked into the existing functionality of a class. Having 40 DoTs on a target just means that there are 40 DoTs distributed amongst all of the people currently attacking the boss.

Huh? Maybe I wasn't exactly clear.. Yes, all DDs should be using their DoT's, as it's all part of the maximum DPS output.. There is huge difference if people aren't using their DoT's - which I'm equating as equal to an additional DD. All I'm saying is, DoT all the things! Lol
