Technically, there's also a very minor increase to the worth of SkS.

With TP's removal, you no longer have to care about SkS ending up with you capped by TP regen especially with only WAR having a TP restoration skill in SB.

I don't expect it to change too much, but it might be that in some instances SkS might compete with Det - Depending on the job and the current gear levels (I.e. GNB will get more out of SkS than other jobs because Gnashing, their major DPS increase, has its CD affected by it. DRK might have a slightly different breakpoint for SkS when it affords them additional Syphon Strikes per minute enough to use an extra EoS. Meanwhile, PLD won't care since Holy Spirit isn't affected by it so a significant portion of their damage won't benefit at all)

So, it possibly might end up being a staple for GNB and WAR (WAR not getting much out of DH because ungabunga. Also, with Inner Chaos there's added value for more BG generation per minute to get more FC's to reduce Infuriate CD).

Depends on how the math all works out. GNB will be like DH(Crit) > Crit(DH) > SkS/Det while WAR will be Crit > Det > SkS. With likely PLD/DRK still remaining as DH(Crit) > Crit(DH) > Det.

In essence... While passive defence from gear and mitigation from all the plethora of skills we have is so high (With damage mostly being concentrated into Tankbusters)... Tenacity is a redundant stat, since the extra mitigation is not necessary and its DPS value is just objectively lower than every other stat.

But who knows, maybe at level 80 they'll be jacking damage up so that Tenacity might actually be relevant? I doubt it, but it's possible.
