How would they fix PLD 4.0?

The reason Warrior has good TP management is not because of Equilibrium.

The reason Warrior has good TP management is because they get free actions. Inner Beast or Fell Cleave give them a full cooldown to recover their TP. You see this when syncing down to old content with more than one tank, like World of Darkness: I remember struggling quite a bit with TP because you don't get that free attack when you're out of stance.

Adding Deliverance and Fell Cleave solved those problems outright, and Equilibrium became outright redundant before you even got it. And I don't see why screwing over Butcher's Block is going to help other tanks. It's just going to make it harder to use Warrior.

Please stop asking for damage on flash. It's not going to happen, and a lot less use than getting some sort of spammable physical aoe for combining with bloodbath.

WAR having access to BB combo as part of the dps rotation is bonkers. This is why WAR is pulling for the most part because they can sustain aggro way easier than PLD and DRK especially. If SE is willing to clear up the meta, adjusting PLD and DRK skills to fit their MT role like adding more aggro generation for DRK especially. In tandem, have WAR and the next OT-to-be suit the OT role better, lowering the potency for BB is a step forward because currently the extra potency gives a reason for WARs to keep using.

BB combo makes it harder for MTs to sustain aggro, mostly because it is a DPS gain for the most part although just 20 potency each cycle, thus making it on par with Eye (either nerfing BB combo or buffing Eye combo OR both) will satisfy the MT-OT design, OT WARs don't have reason to spam BB combo and it still retains MT WARs for the most part. DRK suffers the most on aggro and for an MT, this is somewhat unacceptable because it is known as the best current MT.
