    because you only bring as much mitigation as you need, and WAR can stay on the DPS polar-end of gauge use, and be picky in their choice of which mitigation tools are used when. I'm not a fan of Inner Beast being one of the last mitigation tools WAR chooses, but it's still there in case of emergency. And IB combined with the rest of their better and deeper defense kit makes them THE iron wall if they choose.

    We don't do this though, not because of just the DPS loss, more-so because we just don't have to. Healers can handle things just fine and still DPS if they are putting forth any effort.

    It's only when someone fucks up a mechanic, or a healer dies to a mechanic, or something similar goes wrong. And that is when having IB in your pocket makes a difference. Same for PLD's utility. DRK I don't think so much.

    By a 3rd blood ability I was referring to a third ability akin to Blood Price and Blood Weapon, not blackblood gauge. I see that would be confusing, but essentially like Requiescat for PLD, who shift between Req >> FoF for ideally 100% uptime. So too for DRK Price/Weapon >> Mind for 100% uptime.
