DRK enmity gen vs other tanks

[DRKoftheAzure]

The issue is you can get the same effect by simply shutting off your stance after allowing the MT to get initial agro. The issue with enmity combos is they aren't inherently adding anything to gameplay.Warrior had 3 different combos, one for enmity, a damage buff, and self healing. You HAD to use your damage buff combo after enmity in order to increase the enmity generation per combo.
You occasionally used self healing ability, but that just makes you a little squishier if you spammed BB all the time.
I would argue stance dancing provided more of a dynamic.
You could just shut off your stance for the increased damage, toss your stance up for the tank swap, provoke and then finish your enmity combo for a chunk of threat.
Stance dancing did more than combos did in terms of gameplay behavior./

I will say that the damage buff combo ender is probably the dumbest thing that hasn't gone away yet...


In fact, I think damage buffs tied to any damage dealing ability that requires you to successfully hit the target you want to do damage to is dumb, then again I was spoiled by pre-Shadowbringers Darkside...


Stance dancing did provide more of a dynamic, but only for Warriors due to their stances not being tied to the GCD...


And if you didn't have tank stance on but you weren't second on enmity list, your main tank expected you to use enmity combos... Before the advent of Provoke + Shirk...


Now everyone in the party are wondering why the off tank isn't second on enmity list because they get destroyed by the boss, and if your off tank isn't dead and they don't have tank stance on, it's time to bring back enmity combos... and DPS stances for good measure...
