    This logic needs to die horribly in a grease fire. Savage was not intended to be cleared in i190, WAR made it possible. So basically, whether intentionally or not, they designed a raid tier that could be progressed on and cleared with one tank but not the others. WAR+other tank was mandatory.

    If they designed raids with a DPS check that that is achievable regardless if your tank composition, this would be a different conversation. But that's not what they did.

    Saying that "other tanks should be buffed to WAR DPS levels because nerfing WAR would make content unclearable" is an intensely telling statement on its own.

    Savage was not just being cleared because of WAR. It was because of both tanks maximising DPS over unnecessary mitigation, and both healers contributing DPS. The offtank DPS gap isn't as big as you think it is, you could easily do WAR MT (about as much DPS as DRK) and PLD OT, and end up with DPS barely behind DRK+WAR but with access to bigger cooldowns when the PLD needs to tank for a little while. Or if you had a NIN you could do DRK MT and PLD OT for the same result.
