    This is honestly my biggest gripe about trying to do BLU-only instances.

    You already do pathetic amounts of damage as a BLU tank due to Mighty Guard's damage reduction, and your dependence on Diamondback means you also spend a significant amount of time spamming Blood Drain just to ensure you have enough MP for every tank buster that comes up, then you lose uptime from spending more time in Diamondback then everyone else does.

    Even just something like a 20% HP boost on tank mimicry would definitely make staying alive prior to casted tank busters a lot more comfortable because right now just an auto + instant tank buster like Flarethrower or Divine Spear can potentially be lethal. Having some non-Diamondback cooldowns to depend on would also make using DPS abilities a more realistic prospect.
