    It's like there's a horde of people following the direct hit bandwagon, because someone said it was good, and they decide to mock everyone who does otherwise.
    Not everyone is a sheep (for better or worse).


    Tenacity isn't the go-to for DPS, but it's far from worthless. Nor do I see how stacking the ONE stat is beneficial to anything other than the ego that goes with saying "I did -this- much damage (as a tank)".

    I have a mix-up of melds including tenacity, crit, sksp and direct hit, and I'm waiting on the live letter to tell us what changes they have coming for tanks. I don't see how you belittling someone's choices of meld makes you any better. This isn't parry we are talking about.

    Actually, for a dps, it is worthless. Tenacity doesn't give anything unless you're a tank.

    You're misunderstanding. They are referring to a tank's DPS.

    Tanks? DPSing?

    Square here with patch 4.05. We've removed Tenacity because it was giving tanks more damage. That's a nono. Instead it's replaced by this new stat, that does basically nothing. You probably won't notice.

    It's funny that anyone thinks anything they meld on their tank (aside from STR on the accessories) *really* matters that much.
