You also don't seem to be taking into account the fact that in these parses, the WAR is OTing, thus doesn't need to activate his tanking stance as much as the DRK.

MNK may be the highest DPS right now but DRG and NIN both increase the DPS of everyone else in the party (DRG with Battle Litany + bringing Disembowel for the BRD/MCH, NIN with fucking Trick Attack which is awesomely awesome), and MNK utility is erased by the DRK which IS the highest MT DPS PERIOD. I hell know that a WAR isn't staying in Defiance while tanking, as much as a DRK isn't standing in Grit either. And Gritless DRK > Deliverance WAR in physical fights, that's also a known fact. The only fight where DRK isn't that high in MT DPS is A4S because there is nothing to parry except the adds. I can't believe there is still someone believing that WAR is above DRK while MTing.
