I think he means like....Short CD readily available defensive buffs. If you're only taking one hit from the TB you can easily just pop sheltron for a 25% damage reduction and just forego CDs. WAR doesn't really have an equivalent to that(well Inner Beast but that doesn't count bc tank stance.)

Anyway that's a good example for a time to use it. Take O1s, for the first TB, he roars immediately after iirc so you can sac vengeance fot a shield.
