There are situations in turn 4 where you need to build threat on two targest simultaneously where both targets will be reciving full single target dps (normally you are only either deaiing with aoe damage or single target on your own single target), and depending on strat having them quelling strike may well not be an option. Similarly, in turn 2 tank switching, as the threat is continually being bounced between you, there is a slight interruption of the threat build, so again you have limited GCD's to keep ahead of your dps and healers.

Also, as allagan sword is only from turn 5, curtana +1 is a very safe investment. It will last a long time before being replaced.

As Pixel is so fond of saying, our job is to build as much threat as possible as quickly as possible. Curtana +1 is how you do that.
Couldn't agree more, Valor Helm and Curtana+1 are investment items that have a lot of mileage.
