purely situational
personally I tend to not use it against mobs that use multi-hit WS/high eva mobs
chances are it's going to do you more harm than good on those mobs if they're high lvl
mamool lurkers are a great example, high eva and vorpal blade
that's not to say you can't use it on them, but yea you get the idea
for salvage specifically, got a rdm with 5/5 phalanx merits? (which you should) full time that first floor, unless you're doing hammer in SSR
personally I dont use it on second floor SSR either, because fomor hit like a truck, i've seen MNKs get 1 shot with stance up on that floor due to MNK fomor doing WS on them with 0 shadows up
mortal rev can 1shot you too as stated above, if you're solo tanking that i'd personally stance rather than not, since 1 MNK = ***all TP moves
i've only ever been 1shot by that once, but yea you don't need to stance that boss if you're duo tanking
