Comments:
This set will provide around a 1.5% DPS increase to a group if it is applied to Damage Dealers when used.

This set works really well for 4-person content, especially in groups where everyone is using their Ultimate’s on cooldown.

For trials it can be a decent set for specific fights. Things like vSS Last Boss this set means you can get an extra Warhorn per phase and on vAS+ it can be good as Warhorns uptime can fluctuate depending on the experience of your Healers.

This is worth using if you are looking for a Heavy Armor buff set for your Off Tank. There are so few sets to use as a Tank, especially heavy sets and the fact this provides a group buff and a slight DPS increase means it’s going to have some use.

This set has a lower Ultimate per second gain compared to Arkasis, however the Arkasis proc can be wasted so this set provides much more reliability. If you combine Drake’s with a Decisive 1 Handed Weapon it should actually outperform Arkasis.
