A flaw on SE's part, not the players. For the most part SE has failed to create a true dynamic to the actual tanking portion of playing a Tank. You have skills to build and maintain enmity, and skills to mitigate. You hold all the aggro, you pop cds when needed and that's the extent of tanking. Anything within the realm of extra-mitigation is nothing more than a singular skill or rotation. That's because creating a convoluted(advanced) mechanic to performing these necessary functions will create a schism that would not be healthy to the playerbase as a whole. So in the end the dynamic to playing a tank is how well you can perform other duties on top of your tanking responsibilities, and a primary source for that are advanced dps rotations.
