    Not so bad for DPS, but if we get another turn like T13 where we need tank LB. Then good game for anyone that wants to try solo heal or tank.

    It's a tradeoff... You either go with a diversified composition and get normal LB rate, or you try to win with stacking and lower LB rate.

    That depends on what their definition of "slower" is. I have a feeling that their definition is something closer to "almost nonexistent".

    I would imagine it would be the same rate at which "slower LB" is right now, which off the top of my head rough guesstimate (not properly tested) is about 2/3 of the optimal rate, so over the course of the fight you would lose maybe one or two LB1 stacks worth of LB (assuming you hit LB3 immediately, also using Thordan to get this result in my head).

    edit: actually now that I think about it, It's even faster than 2/3 (more like 3/4 or 4/5), but even keeping figure at 2/3, the tradeoff is not severe at all.
