do people hate tanking?

tl:dr? Heavy is the body that wears the armor

Are you calling me fat?

In my opinion, tanking in XI was superior to tanking in XIV. I really miss Ninja tanking. It always made me feel godly when a tank buster was mitigated by one of my shadows.

As far as XIV goes, I think what turns a lot of people off to tanking is being in the unavoidable spotlight. When a tank screws up it is extremely obvious and the general public are very vocal about it.

You just gotta grew a thick skin, not worry too much about people opinions, and do the best you can. I think that's true regardless of what job you play.
