Removing tank buffs and incorporate them into rotation?

[Launched]

Sounds like an awful idea, you would just use as little mitigation as possible to get max dps.

2.0 Drk was a good example of this, your weaponskill combo when hard slash>spinning slash> power slash. The other rotation hard slash>syphon strike>delirium (and i believe you used to chose between power slash or souleater as a finisher or delirium)

That's not how it worked. You had to choose between Delirium and Soul Eater, and you did that based on dps. If you had enough MP for Dark Arts you used SE, otherwise you used Delirium because it was higher potency. The INT debuff was automatically kept up like that.

PLD and WAR have examples of how your idea doesn't work. HW PLD never wanted to use Rage of Halone because it was weak, so you didn't get the STR debuff. HW WAR often used Butcher's Block over Storm's Path because it was stronger, so you missed out on the 10% damage down. People don't want to lose dps.
