    What I actually said is that all DPS have access to aggro management tools that do *not* cost them anything. Also known as Diversion, which is ridiculously OP right now.
    The only real exception to this are BRD and MCH who only have Tactician and Refresh as their enmity tools, both which actually have beneficial effects to the group and could be necessary in a specific point in the fight. However, as of now, that's not the case in any fight in the game for Tactician. Not to mention how ridiculously hard it is to TP starve at level 70, even after dying. It's more than safe to say that you can at least rely on Tactician, and even Refresh, to drop aggro.

    Also, monks can make use of Purification in a fight without losing any dps if the boss jumps long enough for them to gather 10 chakras. Same for DRG and Elusive Jump.

    The bottom line is very clear here, enmity management is a party responsability. Nobody is expecting the Samurai or the Monk nor anyone to go out of their way and play bad just so the Tanks can be trololo lazy and stay on DPS stance. What people are expecting though, is that you do the bare minimum. Press the small and sparkly green button that costs nothing every time it comes off CD, and everyone will be happy.
