WAR raid "UTILITY" (Tank Balanced achieved?)

[Aana]

Im confused who you're addressing with this. You quoted my post, when I was in agreement with it being utility, but then are saying something someone else said, as if the statements were directly related to eachother.

Edited for clarity. Was responding to Chrono both complaining about other jobs raid utility while simultaneously dismissing Drk's wholesale. You are correct though on your points. Would only add that looking at 'top drks' as a model for using tbn is a poor comparison. The 99% people are having the entire raid work towards feeding that person so they can get a top number. Personal balance cards, working party mechanics around that individuals uptime. Of course they aren't going to use a (slight) dps loss utility when they are going for personal dps records with the party on board for that goal.

Look down the list a bit at the 'good' runs where healers and MT aren't bending over backwards to cater to 1 persons record numbers. The highest combined tank and healer DPS runs do use TBN because its a mitigation buff at a miniscule cost which frees up more healer DPS and tank CD conservation for the group as a whole.
