inb4 someone mentions the heavy armor, MNK had by a huge margin, the biggest HP pool in the series, and it was not a tank.

So please, let go of this argument and focus on FFXIV without mentioning the past iterations.
monk, yeah meaby but doestn matter when the other series you have a limit of 9999 of vit.

nektulos: in the older ones you only have dps and healer, in ff4 you have frontal dps are cecil, kain and egde, and the mages back ridia and rosa, you dont have tanks there, cecil only have cover and thats all.

cecil sacrifice whas a skill how increse you next attack power, in DS version the skills put a buff on cecil and take her hp slowly in X turns, so SE take ds version of sacrifice and take MP instead of HP, and ppl got mad for that?, class identity for me i feel like a dark knigth, one how fall in to darkness to use powerfoul skills and i take the essence of my enemies with sole survivor, mi role is tank, who in lore whe are few knights how take arms vs the holypriest to protect the downtrodden.


drk is a tank this is the true reality, so you want to sacrifice a phisical defense and a self heal skill for a parry skill and a damage buff? drk need foresight, not a burst skill, whe have spit and carve+da and a lot ofgc for that.
