Mathematically I can't see how this works out for Pallies to have any DPS advantage.

Sorry to be the annoying pally here. Totally not related to warriors which are awesome, won’t disagree there [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

First capping Str is easy for melee on a raid. Focus or Maniacal Strength + Focus will do it easy. A Y4 at 40 Strength and you only need like 150 unbuffed. Easy.

Second while Y4 won’t stack with Grim Aura or Major Shielding it stacks with everthing else. By my math Grim Aura is 10 attk and Y4 is 42 attk (capped Str).

What’s 32 attack on raid targets? A third of avatar. A big deal.
