I mean... some of those old fights were so magic damage heavy that DRKs were in demand. This literally lead to people rejecting other tanks from joining their parties.
PLD used to not get stacks when under Hallowed Ground. That led to a lot of quirky single tank strats (in OG Shiva and Titan for example) so parties would demand having a PLD and a DPS over any two tanks.
