Tanks using their enmity combo while being OT

[Thunda_Cat_SMASH]

You litteraly said "ignoring everything about group synergy is being a good tank".

Everytime a MT (DRK/PLD) have to use an enmity combo to keep up with the OT WAR's Butcher's block, the group loses overall potency.
Even if you use Storm's Path instead of BB, if it allow the MT to use a single DPS rotation instead of an enmity one, the whole group's potency will increase.


... But who cares, right? Be a good Tank, yay.

It might be a good idea to read more then 2 words of what I've said in this thread. I've already pointed out precisely when it's acceptable to Storm's Path.

Course, then you might actually have to up your comprehension abilities to understand.

Except my post had nothing to do about the uses of SP. It was all about potency loss.
In fact, every post I made in this thread was about that. It seems that you should take your own advice for yourself.

Since it seems that you are the one with understanding issues, I'll explain what I said. Again:
I don't care about the uses of Storm's Path utility, it's not the point. All I'm saying is that if you use BB and that forces your MT (DRK or PLD) to do an enmity combo, it'll be a potency loss for the group.

So, when you said "A good war OT uses Butcher's block to keep up high DPS.", I basically answered with "not if it forces a potency loss for your MT".
Come on, it's not that hard to get.

This. The good WARs aren't the ones who use eye -> butchers recklessly, the good WARs are the ones constantly analyzing their threat, allowing the MT to maximize their dps up-time while having breathing room on enmity. This is especially true during speed kills, where it's required for DRK/PLD to forsake as much enmity as possible for the sake of dps when they're MT.

Clear time/group dps > personal dps, all day long. If you get a tank that wants to sit in tank stance and 1-2-3 all day, then by all means go eye -> butcher's all day, since that'd be optimal. But if your MT is actively maxing their dps output and you're approaching their enmity level as an OT WAR, lay off and take the 20 potency hit. The dps they gain from not having to enmity combo FAR surpasses yours.

I'm a bit surprised of people taking what i said seriously, those who didn't just continue what they do best. Honestly this thread should've died at the 2nd page. (i wasn't trying to troll mind you.) I seen players do a lot of things that work in their favor, I was simply posting an opinion here, and lets be honest here, 100% of the community isn't going to change their game style over what some RANDOM player THINKS. There, i said it. I started it, so now i'm ending it.

So come at me Bro.
