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. ;)

That said, please remember that the Alpha Tester non-disclosure agreement is still in effect, so please refrain from discussion Alpha-related content.

Update: While normally you would only be able to play as the classes available in Gridania, please note that as a special exception during Beta Test phase 1 & 2, players will be able to complete specific objectives to unlock the gladiator class. (Updated Feb 9, 10:20am PST)

I second this demand.

Bah, these playas will be dragging arses and not participating in raids or tanking as Gla... once war comes back out, they back to their old silly ways. Back to soloing and tanking as whm! (and looking for us Mnks to save their sry arses, arrrrrrrr~)
