Is Tenacity working as intended?

And the sad thing is they are putting it all over our equipment.

Yeah its absolutely trash, to the point that its best to meld direct hit on our gear and ignore all new accessories and use i270 STR accessories instead.

They really messed up tanks. Cant wait to go through another set of content and not want 1/2 the drops intended for tanks all over again.

/sigh

How can it be that they can do so many things right and mess up something like this *twice*?

Someone at the dev table must have thought this was supposed to be some sort of lewd comment. And effected changes to make it feel like one.

On topic: I feel like the combined defensive and offensive multipliers of Tenacity ought to be some 30% to 60% higher than Determination's offensive multipliers alone. But even then, once finally viable (for MT position or forced swaps), I'd still consider it flawed on principle. Why have a stat that at all forces your % contribution towards taking hits. You're already specialized as a tank. Why specialize further towards MT (or, by exclusion, OT) beyond best use of toolkit?
