WAR's TP issues NEVER EXISTED. Every 9 GCDs, WAR has 1 GCD with 0TP cost. Every 90s, WAR gets pacified for 2 GCDs after Berserk. The net result is your TP floating above 750 for most of the fight.

Using Equilibrium for TP also means you can't use it for healing.

8% when you're talking 1000 DPS on a dummy is 80 DPS. WAR actually pulls slightly more (like 1020~1050). In actual fights, WAR pulls more like 800~900. 8% of that is not significant. It's also nothing like the DPS disparity between the DPS classes. DRG pulls 1300+ on a dummy while BRD caps at 1100. That's 200 DPS and is close to 17%. That didn't prevent groups from filling 1 DPS spot with a BRD or MCH. And it didn't force groups to pick 4 melees or 3 melee and 1 BRD.

Back on point, there is NOTHING forcing groups to pick WAR as OT and nothing preventing them from letting PLD or DRK OT.

Just to show you how stupid the "hive mind" is, WAR MT / any OT is much higher raid-wide DPS than the opposite. And at no "cost" to defensiveness.
