It's interesting to see forum wisdom go the other way, based upon things other than holding hate.
Off tanking is about putting up single target dps, but much more importantly, its about applying debuffs to bosses. No debuff the DRK can put up as an offtank is very good. Raids are almost exclusively single target fights, or with very limited adds.
