SE please disable dps stance for tanks in pve

[Ashua]

Like healers cannot use cleric stance in pvp tanks leaving defensive stance for a dps stance should be locked out of the stance when entering duty finder/raid finder. These silly posts about tanks being dps makes balancing harder and maybe having it disabled in all pve content would help ease the dev burden.

Actually he may be on to something. The devs may very well move in this direction to appease the lowest common denominator. While their at it they should also remove Ninja Sting of the Wasp and Viper and just make the buffs passive boosts that are always on. Make it so all Bard songs are always on. Enochian will already always be on sort of, don't need it to use fire / blizzard iv anymore. This is the game people wanted so now they'll get it.

They are removing them in SB, you're correct.

I agree. I think tanks should be locked into their tank stances when entering Duty Finder or Raid Content. The only reason tanks were given damaging abilities was so that they could do solo content instead of having to rely on partying up with DPS classes. I think the community has perverted the true meaning of a TANK role and the DPS meta shouldn't have ever happened.

Tanks are here to TANK. Not DPS. If we remove DPS from tanks(and healers) then those lazy DPS will have to do their jobs properly.

If we want to take it one step further and properly represent what a real TANK should look like, we should replace all skills with damage and damage bonus with Pose Emotes that purely increase enmity and Defense bonuses respectively.

PLD Swords, WAR greataxes and DRK greatswords should be replaced with Shields to make them look like real tanks. We could even scrap DRK and redesign it as a DPS as how it should be.

This is really becoming a new level of pettiness.

Oh I didn't know they removed them....well this makes me feel awkward and kinda disappointed at the same time. I sort of meant it as sarcasm. e_e


Guess this confirms they really are appealing specifically to the lowest common denominator now.
Shine on SE...shine on.
