That's 15 levels that you have to endure the flash & overpower spam and marking your targets (and praying DPS follow your marks). It really does force
but the thing is I think having the stance early will help you learn how to do whats expected of you later on in the game which is big pulls, see ill admit i feel dum for saying this but I didnt even no about the Argo bar until I had my alt tank up to level 50 somehow I didnt cause to many wipes. Once I started tanking on my main I had a full handle on it, but what ive notice as Ive gotten better at the game is those low level dungeons can take 15 to 20 mins instead of , 30 mins.


There is no gettin around it big pulls are apart of this game whether people like it or not and having a tank stance early on at level 15 would have new players prepared for whats to come , and also a good explanation of the Argo bar as well. You shouldn't be forced into a situation where you are certainly going to lose Argo, which is the case in lower level stuff even in high level gear if im in level 15 to 20 dungeon on my pali i have to flash about 5 or 6 times.

Tank stance early will allow players to see that they can pull more than two adds at a time so they arent intimidated by it later on in the game and it may resolve some of the conflict when it comes to that. And like someone said by the time someone reaches level 30 they have an idea of whether or not they want to keep playing a job or not or whether they want to only play that job in a potd type environment. By leaving it as it is now Im sure we have lost alot of future tanks that way, instead of holding on to them as low as level 15, I know it would of given me tons of confidence if I had a stance at 15 and I started off seeing I could take on 6 to seven adds at a time.
