    Would it make any difference if, instead of each doing a staggered "tankbuster" once per 20s for 20% of your health pre-mitigation and auto-attacks for 80% of your health pre-mitigation over those 20s they instead did 100% of your health pre-mitigation in autos over those 20s?

    The total damage is the same, with the "tankbusters" just making it so that short-duration mitigation can nullify more of it.

    So why would we need indicators for every mob special-attack... especially when they do at most a few autos of damage at a time? It's not as if they're killing off tanks in a single GCD, or even two.

    Pre-buffs, DRK could still handle all 5 birds off of Kardia and some oGCDs, even with just mediocre party damage. Yes, your DPS shouldn't pull ahead if they're bad at their jobs, but... I don't think knowing how much the birds hit for, let alone only from a tankbuster indicator they only see after the birds are pulled and is forgotten by end of run, is going to help that.
