Is deployment tactics worth having anymore?

Eye for an Eye spreading on Deployment has always been one of the most redundant things in the game. The ability works by getting hit then putting a debuff on the mob that attacked. So spreading it to healers and dps has always been pointless.

If you're using Deployment Tactics, you're using it to spread an Adlo, and the E4E is just a bonus. No one's (usually) expecting DPS to take hits to the face, but the fact that you're deploying a shield means you're probably doing it in preparation for a full party hit, in which case having it on everyone means extra chances for the debuff to trigger.

Edit: wait no it works the same way as before.

Doesn't it require auto attack to proc? Ideally you use it before any of that stuff happens so the mob gets the debuff before anything big goes off

It used to require physical damage to proc; now it's any damage. Granted, the only place I can think that that was useful on the whole party was Ravana or Sephirot, but getting it on both tanks is still nice.
