There's an old saying "three is a crowd" - Not enough tanks?

[Phoenicia]

I never said that WARs had infinite TP, just that they had more longevity than DRK and PLD (especially more than DRK--Blood Weapon is a horrid TP sink).



Nothing's forcing it, no. But in progression, serious groups will seek out every advantage and edge they can get, and if WAR has advantages over the other two for OT, then they will be the preferred OT.

Again, WAR didn't need Equilibrium for its TP.

And as I said, if people looked at every angle, they'd see that WAR MT / x OT is an advantage over sticking WAR in the OT spot. Not everything "serious groups" do is 100% optimal.

For your own group, just get a group of 8 players that can actually play and experiment with setups. Doesn't have to follow the whole "stick a WAR to OT and you're golden" because you aren't.
