And how many people would actually look up on XivDb, sitting down calculating 1000/120, then add another X TP generated in 3 sec time frame = XYz times a War can use OP before their TP run dry....Can you please post out an equation please? Would be very very HELPFUL and much much APPRECIATED to have the equation in hand and I will call you my SAVIOR!!!

/facepalm.

Or the person could just understand the game and know that all AoEs cost roughly the same TP?

Ok, I'll humor you.

All AoE from any TP-using job costs at least 120 TP. Natural combat TP regen is 60/tick; increased +30 by Paeon (+60 by BV Paeon), and +40 by traited Goad.

Main point being that AoE WS's are, by default, 2-3x more costly TP-wise than any single-target move. You don't have to play WAR to know. NIN should know themselves, because you can merely look at Death Blossom's TP cost relative to any of your other WS's and make that judgment.

But sure, keep deflecting on behalf of lazy people.
