    I think the rewards are more a reward for "those who main tanks" than "motivate people to level a tank."
    For healers it was get conjurer to 30 but for tanks its tank extreme modes 200 times...aka hope that your ex mode party isn't a failure and that you're a super pro tank who knows what he is doing. Those who don't main a tank aren't going to have time to drop all their classes just to get this achievement.

    If they thought this was going to "motivate more people to play tanks" I think they are surely mistaken. Time to dump all the tank gear I was saving for GC seals cause no way in hell I'm gonna waste my time doing this (I main a healer anyway)

    Lol, extremes, the bosses who drop the worst itemized tank gear in the game.
    I can see people rolling tanks and spamming t2 enrage in df all day with a herpaderp 25% stat boost too. Thats some hard work and mind blowing tank skillz right there, people will totally be rewarded for 'sticking it out' as a tank. /sarcasm

    so what is your idea? put like 50 fights? so people get mounts by next week then stop playing as tanks?
    200 sounds very reasonable to me

    My best guess at speculating is that they will have recorded completion of previous dungeons, and I would imagine that pre-2.2 they included things like HM Primals, Coil 1, 2, 4, 5, Mog, Ultima, X-modes. Post 2.2 the "kiddie" stuff with 50% echo buffs will be dropped.

    This is basically a time-released Reaganomics campaign, folks. If the achievement can only be unlocked by 200 wins on the very hardest end game content (looks like we will have no lack of Garuda X groups) there is going to need to be some farming done in lower dungeons, such as WP, CM, HM 4-mans, etc. HOPEFULLY people will use their tanks - a combination of people wanting to become competent tanks to be able to complete these hard dungeons, and the 5-10k gil bonus for duty roulette for tanks, SE is hoping this is going to trickle down to relieve long queue timers.

    However, most likely people will find that the path of least resistance is going to be farming myth with their FC mates, then wasting everyone else's time being a sucky tank in Garuda X until they can figure out how its done properly.

    I dont think it will be retroactive. Its only coils and extreme primals that are granting credit so i think they'll start everyone from 0.
