    Personal DPS is balanced by raid DPS utility. You can't balance personal DPS with raid mitigation utility, its a false equivalency and there's no reliable exchange rate between the two. Even if you have the most 1337 healers on the planet that milk a turtle PLD's utility for all its worth, that raid mitigation will still depreciate whereas DPS in any form, personal or otherwise, does the opposite. Eventually the healers will be able to DPS or even solo-heal with a man-mode PLD. If PLD had a Trick Attack, this argument would hold water. But it doesn't.

    PLD having DV and Cover and Intervention is not a proper justification for a DPS gap larger than the one that already exists.
    And DRK's TBN barely qualifies as mitigation utility because it is so insanely weak that in optimized groups a DRK never uses it while not tanking, outside of their opener so they can hit Delirium asap, how does one justify the DPS gap here?

    If a Ford Focus and a Toyota Corolla both run but the Focus doesn't have passenger airbags, you don't fix that by putting a V8 in the Focus.
