But as I said, yes IB is a GCD that you use afterwards, but it actually deals freaking 300 potency worth of damage ignoring Defiance's penalty while healing AND giving you 20% mitigation, whereas Grit/Shield Oath don't deal damage, don't heal you or whatever, it just gives you instantly 20% mitigation. And yeah, you have to turn Defiance on a bit earlier than what DRK/PLD would do with Shield Oath for tank busters, but keep in mind that because of the breaking combo shit for DRK and PLD, they have to do this too. You have to make sure to switch to your tanking stance before starting the next combo because breaking a combo with a non-damaging GCD is the worst DPS loss you can imagine.
