Do you honestly believe that the reason that people aren't playing tanks is because they don't like the class choices? No, they don't like playing tanks because its an often times stressful and boring job.

Adding a new tank class fixes NOTHING. Get this through your head.
Tanks : PLD, WAR
Healers : WHM, SCH
DPS : BRD, DRG, MNK, BLM, SMN

For every 1 tank and 1 healer role there are 1 and a half dps roles. Meaning even if every class was played in equivalent amounts, every 2 light partiess, and every full party would leave one dps short a group. By sheer numbers this game does, in fact, NEED more tank and healer jobs.

Also, yes more people play dps roles as you pointed out. So the solution to that is...piling more dps roles on top of it?

Adding a new dps class fixes NOTHING either. Get that through your head.
