Parry replaced by tenacity (Gear only)

I already addressed both y'all points.. lol

We cant know how tenacity will affect our dps until SB. But go up post #15.

The defense bonus will be nice, but it won't change that this will likely be the end of DpS stance MTing. Lower tank damage with greater DpS damage (from the new Direct Hit stat) will likely make it harder to hold hate outside of Tank stance.

I'm curious to how the new parry will be calculated since they stated it's no longer based on target from the front. It sounds like there may be 3 % of parrying/blocking, Front, Back and Side, since logically speaking if we are thinking about a fight, it is possible to block/parry attacks coming from behind if you see them coming.

So I see them doing something like Parry Rate is 40% in the front, 20% at the sides and 5% from behind.

I can pretty confidently say they didn't want us to be in dps stance for a whole fight... the meta just progress into that given optimization. But moving forward with this gauge system and maintenance of resources going on I doubt we'll miss 3.x MT meta. And our dps as tanks is TBA we just don't know

That seems like too much work... just make it flat rate... although I want to know how raw intuition will be reworked? (Wrong forum).
