    You think you know more then you do, I'll forgive your terrible attitude though. I also choose to omit any references to eHP, they're meaningless to most people and unrelated to my key argument of evasion tanks breaking mechanics. I will comment on this though.

    An evasion tank that doesn't benefit from evasion?

    You're just throwing out ideas that you'd think would work, not caring about how they would actually work in practice or their balance. You also still haven't commented on how an evasion tank will affect current mechanics like debuff stacking.

    Edit: For a new tank to be balanced with the other tanks, their total eHP and mitigation potential have to be similar. That is not only on paper, but in practice. Remember 2.0 WAR was somewhat balanced on paper, but due to how it worked in practice it was inferior to PLD. Evasion as a mechanic would skyrocket a tanks ability to mitigate damage, therefore for any semblance of balance on paper, evasion tanks would need to be less beefy then other tanks.

    Please try to think things out before you post and insult, it cheapens the community.
