New Tank Skills

Cool thing I noticed but GNB's new attack is the follow-up of Burnt Strike in E11S.

We know it's an oGCD so most likely Fated Circle continuation or an upgrade of Bow Shock, most likely the first.

I imagine that WAR gets a vengeance upgrade that acts like NF but now two ppl have the counter effect of vengeance. Just looks like another "cover" effect to me.

I also find it hilarious that out of all the tanks WAR is the only one that gets a defensive cd reveal.

I assume all tanks will get something like that, the benchmark didn't show all the new additions, only the ones the devs probably considered the flashiest.

Honestly, I just think that the WAR blocking the attack while WOL is charging the LB3, is just for cinematic effect and not necessarily a cover effect, but wanting to demonstrate the upgrade to Vengeance. It's not the first time they've shown off attacks in a different way to how it plays out in game.

I would be willing to be a good amount of gil that the Warrior skill, which looks like Vengeance upgrade, has nothing to do with cover. We've had tanks do similar things in Benchmarks before, like Shadowbringers had WoL as DRK physically run in front of someone to block an attack with TBN and counter with Edge.

Man I'd take back most of the things I said about tanking in this game if you could treat any attack like a wild charge.

Goring Blade can only be used under Fight or Flight... hmm... i smell a physical Confiteor combo in 8.0 branching from Goring Blade
