    My problem with the tank LB is that it is useful. But 99.9% of any scenario where the tank LB would be useful, so would the DPS Monk/Drg Limit to do dps. If you have a level 3 LB and the boss is at 5% and your going down, sure you might pop LB3 Tank LB and live and down it, ORRRR you could just mnk/drg LB it and insta kill it. Insta Killing it with ST LB3 is a better decision (on a risk based assessment) than using Tank LB3. So imo the only time it makes since to use a a Tank LB is when your drg/mnk are dead (or you dont have any) and your blm is dead, and your smn is dead, and the only DPS you have up are BRDS (they don't have a dmg LB). But even in that situation it would be better to LB3 as a healer and rez everyone.

    The only real time I've ever seen it be useful is on phase 5 in titan when all your non brds are off the edge. (they can't do dps and they can't be raised). You can Tank LB3 through the tumults in a pinch for the win.

    Imo limits should be more like this

    Paladin -> LB 1 = Global Rampart, LB2 = Global Rampart and Sentinel, LB3 = Global 12 second hallowed ground
    Warrior -> LB 1 = Global Foresight, LB2 = Global Foresight and Thrill of Battle, LB3 = Global ForeSight, Thrill of Battle, and warriors next inner beast is 1 * Party Member Count distributed evenly to group.
    Whm -> ???
    Sch -> ???
    Brd -> LB1 = 25% MP/TP Restore, LB2 = 50% MP/TP Restore, LB3 = 100%MP/TP Restore
    Drg -> ST LB
    Mnk -> ST LB
    Smn -> Summons something bad ass not the mini things, Like maybe LB3 Could be phoenix from FF7 and it does dmg and raises all dead poeople.
    Blm -> Fine as is
