The problem we face here is that dps will start at 30% higher. Then will be 40%. Then 50% higher. Then 60% higher. Eventually and with enough time and gear upgrades dps could be 2x or 3x more dps than a tank and this is a real problem.

Later down the line they will need to constantly buff our threat output to hold aggro against such higher numbers.
Thats true but thats not all thats retarded. Because the str diff is only 2 between savage and lakshmi, some lakshmi peices could be BiS simply because they have more desirable substats
