I disagree, a tank who can focus on their MAIN purpose frees the healers to do more then just focus on the tank. a WHM has more DD potential then a PLD, and arguably the same as a WAR, and a BLM or DRG has more DD potential then all 3. Soo if heals are less needed to keep the tank alive and the tank can still manage hate then more damage can be added to the party then if your tank half assed his/her job and wanted to score more damage to the mob, besides , when a tank becomes distracted with trying to parse high on damage they can easly forget their MAIN purpose , and that is to keep hate and stay alive. Party mechanics have and always will rely on each member doing their particular task to the best of their ability , or like we say in the Army, scan your zone. in wich to say to not bardge on your buddy's, your doing more harm then good, becuase if your not watching your zone cuz your too busy trying to take your budies target , your target has all the time in the world to focus aim on your dome. Soo would i add ATK or VIT to my sword? the obvious answer should be VIT, but if you wana be a jack of all trade you will never be an expert at any one.
