The problem is people are crying about PLD MT DPS, but PLD's MT DPS is its inherent disadvantage, in a fight where PLD's advantage (shield) is thrown out the window, the ACTUAL work around is to let the PLD OT and the other tank (WAR or DRK) MT. The problem is NOT that PLD sucks. It is that people are too stupid to work around its flaws.
People fail to realize that not all tanks are the same, and that balance should not be based around the top 1% meta. Balancing around the tip top is a bad move since they will always pick whats best, and there will always be a best. Always.
