Regarding Endgame DF and Tank Design

[Chocob0charmer]

Sword oath is actually really good once you get relic shield +1.

Since you're never out of oath, you can count the lack of shield oath 20% dmg done nerf as a 20% dmg done buff in sword. Also when you're fighting a single target, the enmity bonus from shield oath isn't that strong since you're holding hate primarily from your skill combo.

Also really good for clearing trash as long as you know how to hold hate without relying on flash

-20% dmg taken is needed in coil/titan/some bosses, but when you have 6200 hp and a relic healer, you're not going down to trash sub bosses
