Tank dps harrasment

[Tint]

Are you trying to say the health bubble a WAR gains in Defiance isn't a form of mitigation? O.o

technically... you are mitigating nothing with a health bubble. however it can help you survive, but only when A the health bubble is full and B you take more damage than the amount of life you have without defiance, wich is almost never the case. the healbuff and the access to Inner Beast is the real advantage of WAR tank stance.

You are leaving yourself with more health than you would have had after a buster. If something would have taken 40k of your 52k and instead took 40k of your 70k you suddenly have a whole lot more wiggle room. Now you might live through a subsequent crit auto attack or a healer not being on the ball to get you back up right away.

I'm sorry but implying more health on a tank isn't useful is just not true. While the DPS contribution offered by Deliverance very often outweighs this advantage it is still undoubtedly an advantage when you're taking big hits.
