PLD is just boring

To be perfectly honest, if you're looking for an adrenaline rush you're playing the wrong role. Tanking is not about thrillseeking. It's about keeping 3 or 7 others from being slaughtered.

I dissagree, tanking is completely about the rush. It's the unpredicatability of the role that draws many to it. Thats also a big problem with tanking in this game. Barely surviving a big hit is absolutely about the rush...

Getting high numbers on a hit isnt unpredictable. It's cool... but not a "rush" in any way since it's expected. There's two major camps to tanking, those that see themselves as protectors and those who see themselves as optimizers ( I identify with the latter ), and dependent on which one you are it can alter how you look at tank rather profoundly.

Both, however, are very valid viewpoints and really shouldn't be looked down upon.
