Combo Barrier: 240 second party buff
Threaten: 80 second monster buff, fails 50% of the time
There are plenty of reasons why targeting monsters is inferior to targeting players. Threaten reaches its most useful on a boss that only does physical attacks, and multiple full parties are attacking. Combo Barrier is equally useful anywhere you can get the combos.
