Mechanics like that and the WoD meteors (or was killing Puffs too?) that are designed to provide full 3bar LBs at precise moments are a welcome addition. Disappointed that we're not really seeing that in NM ALEX.
Yea, I get the idea they don't want to design fights with the Limit Break in mind like that with a few exceptions. It's just usually an extra thing, but the Tank LB has to be required or it won't be used.

I think they should do more with the added LB mechanic. Just seeing the LB bar fill up is cool, and you could use it to force a Tank LB at least sometimes.
I think have the LB auto fill and make it integrated into the fight would be much better.

It takes really long to fill up. I get the build-up is part of the design but having it as part of the fight design is still more dramatic.
And there would be more freedom to include the Tank LB if had more auto-fill mechanics.

That might just make the Healer LB ignored if you use it by design instead being able to save it as a safety net.
But that's why there should be a mix.

And though we're saying DPS is mostly used, it's Melee LB like 90% of the time. Not integrating the LB into the fights really makes it lack diversity.
