    Higher sustained potency on dark knight is balanced by higher burst on the other tanks. It’s not vacuum math, we see it in practice and on paper. Increasing the 2 minute potency of delirium by about 1200 potency brings us to exactly the same potency per second we see on the others when you take into account their burst.

    Well PLD got hit with a 2 - 3% nerf, and WAR's damage seems to be shuffled from their burst window to their sustained damage through naked fell cleaves, so less emphasis on their burst (especially now that it doesn't line with as many raid buffs, in fact litany and battle voice are literally useless for WARs now unless those buffs are used outside of the inner release window now.)

    The trade off for War is unknown at the moment. We have no idea how exactly this will impact their dps if at all. paladin is definitely losing damage. But I believe they will still be ahead of dark knight. Warrior is just more complicated to work though it’s rotation since the change is drastic.
