Is Tenacity still a dead stat?

[Absurdity]

Gonna be honest, I don't know why tanks and healers can even use DH to begin with since none of their gear has it. You'd think it would be a DPS only stat like how Tenacity is only tanks and Piety is only healers.

Nobody really knows, but as long as Direcxt Hit gives us a bigger dps increase we will continue to use it.

And even if we can't meld Direct Hit anymore we will simply replace those with Determination, making DH inaccessible to tanks and healers will not suddenly make Piety or Tenacity more valuable, it would take a massive shift in encounter design for them to become more useful substats...maybe that is exactly why tanks and healers can meld Direct Hit, because their own specific substats are simply not good.
