Tank shortage is going to get worse.

Not really that fun, you spam the 3 skills over and over again along with flash to get hate. You mark the Target so hoping the DPS would target that monster. You constantly have to tell them to attack only the Target you attack. Ranger always keep stealing your hate showing off their DPS. Our sub job skill Cure are pathetic making it worthless. Our damage is laughable.

I hope they buff the Tank damage more, and at least gave them Cure 2.

You can reduce any class to spamming skills, but it's disingenuous at best. Were it as simple as spamming skills, there wouldn't be such a wide range of ability levels in tanks. You don't constantly have to tell DPS to do anything. If they take aggro, who cares? DPS can take a couple hits and be fine. It's not like there's a lot of healing necessary. Plus you can learn to be better and discover new methods and strategies to building threat. Bad DPS early makes you a better tank later.

Also, your DPS is irrelevant. It's not your role.

I will admit that I as going to actually play a tank in the beginning, but I stopped due to the utter "clunkiness" feel. I definitely think tanks could be much more enjoyable if it didn't have the taxing global. /shrug.

How is it clunky? Weave buffs in between attacks and let it flow better. The GCD gives you plenty of time to cycle through mobs to check their threat levels. It's actually quite nice.
