    The problem is that we basically have a "swiss army knife" rotation. Whenever you are in the fight, this unique rotation will always fills all your goals be it DPS, enmity, ressource building, etc...And I feel that it's a little boring. For me, you should have to decide wether you need more ressource (To spend on your defense, or synchronize with a burst window) or more enmity, at the cost temporarily reducing your DPS, or if you can maintain your current DPS for the time being.

    One thing I imagined a long time ago is a debuff tied to the gap in enmity. Basically, enmity would be separated in "Floors", and your tank stance would put a "Tunnel vision" debuff that increases direct/critical hit rate for anyone that is below your Floor (the wider the gap, the stronger the debuff). This way, even if you're top enmity, you'd still want to build enmity to give more and more stacks to your comrades and make their DPS skyrocket, which would in turn, make maintaining the gap more difficult, etc...

    On a sidenote, it would make recovering from death less punishing, since you'd be back at "Floor 1" and could gain a huge Crit/DH buff

    Y: I usually compare FFXIV with a theme park, but the Forbidden Land of Eureka won’t be a place where everyone would want to go. For example, there are people who don’t want to go to horror houses because they don’t see the point in getting scared on purpose. For example, on a date, the boyfriend might want to invite the girlfriend to go the horror house, but the girlfriend just doesn’t seem to find it fun. In other words, it’s not like everyone wants to go to the horror house, but there are people who just love the adrenalin rush they get from it. Think of Eureka as something like that.
