Yeee it wasn't very in depth for sure but it did add another interesting dynamic to the role tanks could fulfill in larger group content. A better example would probably have been Twintania in T5 where the off-tank was responsible for soaking orbs, positioning the snakey adds etc etc Granted that's an oooold example and 8 man instead of 24 man but it's an element that makes fights more interesting when the alternative as OT now is predominantly standing on the boss and watching for tank swaps or tank in party out mechs. I think the last time OT had any responsibility like that was.... maybe Ramuh in E5s with the orbs and Garuda and Ifrit in E6s when they split into 2. Oh and ok they got 1 thing this tier with p10 yeeting them onto their platforms. But all these examples are in 8 man raid, not 24 man. It's a shame!
