Making Jobs Rotationally Easier in 4.0

[Reynhart]

The example would be more apt if the assignment was "design five playable levels for a game."

But that would be comparing five different DPS. At the core, tank and DPS focus is very different.

That's opposed to your mentality where you just turtle it up, never really have your ability to tank tested at all because you rely on your surplus of mitigation.

Being a turtle doesn't automatically mean not being tested as a tank, but I agree the current design does not have this purpose.

When and if you release content that truly pushes the tanks in terms of their skill at surviving, one will adjust just fine because they are already used to pinpoint CD usage and precise mitigation.

Only because mitigation is too much "on-demand" and fights are too much scripted.

A lot of the harsher criticisms are not based on the standards I used for those numbers.

Well, since saying "I don't like stance dancing" is enough to launch a flurry of bad reactions, I'd say they are. For example, can you tell how I would end on the DPS scale ?

Tanks with misconceptions about DPS and tank-stance will parse way below the number I gave you because they don't meet those standards.

Since you gave a number for 100% tank stance uptime, how would "stance misconception" change that ?
