I can explain the "obvious reasons", and why it's good for healers too.


Basically in savage raiding, it is the most optimal for a WAR to pull on each floor. This is because they have Defiance/Unchained which gives them max threat at-pull over all the other tanks, and they have no damage penalty unlike other tanks so that is more DPS. Raid healers love WAR pulls too because they can use Equilibrium to heal themselves for initial auto or heavy tank damage on pulls. A simple regen/shield on the pull is all they need to be sustained. So that is likely several more GCDs for both healers to DPS.

It was probably a warrior alt though even if they had A12S gear, because any true warrior will welcome pulling any boss in this game. I know I do.
