    Why are people like ama using tanks as a comparison to healers clerics stance (probably cause I said I didn't care about the conversation anymore unless warrior was brought up, your a piece of work ama). Do you even realize how often a tank has to stance dance in a fight in comparison? There are fights where the Off tank is literally only useful for 1 mechanic (the rest is downtime) and the whole rest of the fight they are a DPS. The main tank can spend literally almost the whole fight in defiance/shield oath/grit while the offtank can spend almost the whole fight in deliverance/swordoath/nongrit. A very adept healer will have to switch numerous amounts of times, its not even about being hard at that point, its more about an annoyance, especially just to recast DoTs every time they go down if you want to optimize dmg. This comparison doesn't work, so don't even try it. A warriors entire toolkit is self heals and DPS which means they should be DPSing with no other alternative like a healer has which its main role is to heal. They could add more off tank mechanics but thats another debate for another thread.

    Also if you lower tank DPS (which is fine with me) you may as well just lower healer dps instead since they don't have nearly as much downtime which defeats your own damn argument. Are you the one trolling now?
