    Fast Blade>Flat Blade while Goring blade is on cooldown and you'll do 70+ damage with Flat blade....
    Also Fast Blade>Flat Blade has a much lower cool down than any of the MRD combos, so you can do it more often... and I mean pretty much constantly










    Ask yourself this... If MRD weaponskills are doing 5x's the damage of Glad weaponskills... why, in your example, is the MRD only doing 15% more in your example?
    That math doesn't add up...
    I do like MRD... It makes for a faster fight with more DPS.. but GLAD holds hate better

    Yes MRD is doing a more damage..
    But here is MATH
    War drum generates 363 enmity... (540 under sentinel)
    And has a 1 minute cooldown
    So you have to do "at least" 363 MORE DAMAGE than a glad PER MINUTE to even be in the ballpark, in terms of enmity
    I don't know that you can refute math...

    Im not being a douche... I play both classes... and when I wanna be a hard hitting tank I go MRD.. but numbers dont lie

    I don't even have to mention rampart

    I don't on Ifrit because both Aegis Boon and War drum have a 1 minute cool down and its so much easier to use them together....
