    Wouldn't provoke be good enough for tank swaps? IMO it sounds very situational.

    You shirk to provide an emnity lead, so the main tank can... stay in his off tank stance... as the main tank. Pretty kewl right guys?

    Really helps Sams and mnks out.

    A co-tank in a PF Susano EX group introduced me to the applications of Shirk for this specific purpose, neither one of us had to switch off DPS stance, and we never had to use an enmity combo.

    I don't think I could go back, my eyes were opened that day.

    I think it's just really, really situational.
