Did tanks really need more healing

On-demand burst healing as implemented on jobs like WAR rewards players who lack anticipation and foresight. That's what I mean by proactive vs. reactive gameplay. It looks like you saw a word that you didn't like and went off on an unrelated tangent.

You're stating the obvious and preaching to the choir here. Still doesn't tell me what point you're trying to make and even less how it's even related to what I said...

Self heal = estus flak.
Anticipated mitigation= parry.

One of these take skill while another doesn't.

The current war is what it look like when player get in the boss room with a rechargeable super estus flak.

You know that WAR still has to mitigate damage to be able to survive to use its healing, right? It doesn't just automatically survive tankbusters.

Estus Flask actually means dps downtime, which Warrior should have on it's self heals tbh.

You got a heal baked in your most frequently mitigation. Even your party mit got a regen.

It isn't called SUPER estus flask for no reason.

Crazy how DRK gets its second self sustain button in DT at level 92. It only took 4 expansions later

I honestly quite like it. Makes the unique Def buff have more oompth over like it being the other rampart.

I personally look at the additional tank sustains as a way for the tanks to get by while dealing with lesser-than healers. I cant tell you how many awful healers you find even in roulettes. Scholars especially are bad outside of high end content. cant wipe if you're constantly healed. Heal

I mean bad tanks exist too but you don't see DPS and Healers getting insane mitigation to compensate against an awful tank dying. IDK why healers are ruled out as being okay to remove from play, at that point just make everyone a DPS that can Tank and Heal.

I’d like 50% targeted mitigation I can give to a tank every 25 seconds, the stun on holy to never drop off and for tanks DPS combos to be 1111111111

I mean I don’t want to be walled by a bad tank, think of me for once
