Probably a dumb idea on class balance.

Damage is not the end all be all of progression or anything to be honest.

You might think that, but the people who are interested in savage content will take a 1% DPS buff over 10% mitigation, or a 100 potency regen for DPS. I know I would.

The only way to make mitigation, or regen, favorable over DPS is to make the DPS buff crap, and make the regen/mitigation buff OP.

Quicker kills = less healing = less damage taken
