Tanks will be very much needed for content like instanced raids (the level 25 dungeon in particular) and as such the dev. team has made them available for usage!

Eagle-eyed posters already spotted some gladiators in our most recent blog post, too. ;)

Yay!!

And especially exciting is that the Devs are implementing Gladiator for use (not MRD). Does this mean they truly see GLA/PLD as the better/real tanks now? /cheer

That's good news :) But i hope it's nothing complicated; or testing those higher lv content may be delayed, cause it takes a while to get glad, and they fall behind in lv.

Hehe, as you know Ren, I'm the same. :D (<3 GLA) I did indeed notice something was up in one of those new blog pics when I saw a Roe GLA in it - now we know why. ^^

Anyway, Bayohne, this is great news. Thank you! :D

I wonder if you can pick Gladiator right off the bat, or do you have to unlock it with quests. Will there be enough quests to hit the beta cap, if they only have starter area would people run out of quests to lvl, or will we get an increased exp rate to test out 25 and 35 dungeons?

Did you even read the comment? it specifically says you need to complete certain objectives to unlock.
Ofc there will be, otherwise there's always Leves.

Did you know that the JP side asked exactly the same thing when Yoshida posted what Bayohne did just now?
Yoshida's response was saying that MRD are still tanks.
