The endless battle - Tank attributes

[Hruodig]

By the same token, your Meta is irrelevant to SE and they will design gear and encounters around their design imperatives. They will balance skills, stats and potencies based on their criteria, not the DPS meta. If their goals conflict with the DPS meta, guess who wins?

And it's on se to change that in a meaningful way, which they have utterly failed to do time and time again so far. Ultimately the meta will always revolve around maximizing raid dps in order to clear encounters faster-as long as the win state continues to be "reduce boss's hp to 0", that will not change.
