WAR OT enmity monger

[Arkenne]

If you are a WAR yourself, you can take advantage of them using Storm's Eye and do 2 Butcher's Block combos instead.
Is a DPS gain for you as Maim actually can last that long.

Also - the OT should optimally be second in hate in case you, the MT, die.

Storms Path is going to be the main means to build up wrath come 4.x, so it may have higher potency, but it doesnt allow more fell cleaves.

Well that's good to hear. Tbh, I haven't really followed what's going on with war, but it's really looking like pld's patch this go round in the MT department.

What's all this talk about the OT needing to be 2nd on the aggro list? Isn't that what provoke's for?

They think they "need" to be second in aggro because that's what they are accustomed to in groups where they spam BB combos and force their MT to sit in defensive stance, and then, in spite of being in defensive stance all the time, their MT is dying for whatever unfathomable reason, so its being justified further as insurance that the boss won't go to one of their DPS. -_-

This is why outside of raid I MT as War an let whoever i find to OT, all i need is Skill sunder in defiance an done i wont lose aggro unless someone else provoke.
now if im OT an i see MT on tank stance an not droping it like 90% of tanks in DF then is a butcher block festival.

The mt shouldnt have to stay in tank stance in order to keep aggro from their war ot. each time the BB combo is used their enmity will increase, its also their highest potency combo so it makes sense why to use it. However if youre a drk/pld and using your dps combos in this scenario, you'll eventually have to use your (lower potency) enmity combo or switch to tank stance in order to keep aggro. The difference between Storms eye and BB is only 10 potency so is it really worth in the long run if the pld/drk mt is forced into their tank stance/enmity combo?
