also, DRK is apparently going to be a parry/dodge tank. Please explain how that is what the WAR is supposed to be (meat tank) ?
I would say it was less of a failure and more of a too "complex" for most people to operate properly. Since it required healers to know when u were going to IB as to prevent overhealing. The biggest "failure" with the old version of WAR was tying the healing bonus into Wraith stacks. Which made most warriors afraid to ever even use them. I actually prefered WAR how it was except for a few minor changes and wish they devs would have kept it more of a "blood" tank than and PLD w/out a shield with more health as it is now. IMO there really is not many major playing differences in pld and war.
