Even targeting will trigger Auto-attack, they get 4 damage boost abilities, can indefinitely have +10% Crit Rate, can throw up 3 DoT's, and crits on Venom/Wind can reset Bloodletters non-GCD cooldown, and all can go on before the tank can even reach the target (which is partially why I prefer Flash to pull, because I'll be in range before DPS can do anything). Considering Tanks have to build up their Hate at the start, a BRD's potential burst damage can really screw things up if they're not paying attention, usually you won't have issues like this with MNK or DRG because they need to build up some of their damage abilities as well as be in close proximity of their target.
