    I imagine in progression gear that a Savage tankbuster will 1 shot a tank in STR 270's.

    I don't think so. Especially with a paladin and dark knight pairing, since they can protect each other.

    Fair enough, I did not consider that. I REALLY don't want to have to babysit paper tanks...

    Susano EX can already oneshot them nicely within the first 30 seconds of the fight if Asail(? The telegraphed tank buster) or the auto attack after it crits. Bad tanks are more likely to not mitigate it because it's not as obvious as Stormsplitter. To be fair, the tank getting oneshot before the first mechanic is usually a pretty good sign there's only pain if you stick around.

    You know how white mages are supposed to let tanks hover around 95% hp so that their regens/the tanks self healing doesn't go to waste and all that? Yeah they can't be missing any health at all before a butterfly lands on them or else they might crumple and die from the damage.

    She was talking about savage though. One assumes tanks and healers in savage aren't complete sh@#! and know how to mitigate and time heals.

    You're right it's not telegraphed but as a DRK you can eat it out of Grit easily, Shadow Wall + TBN makes it hit for 7kish, you can just hop into Grit for the last one and time another TBN + Reprisal and it'll hit for 11k. Bad tanks that can't mitigate will continue to be bad and bad str tanks that eat it all with nothing again will be bad it's not just a str or vit tank thing a good tank will survive it easier than a bad one and it's really noticeable.

    What really makes me mad is that if people mess the lightning marker mechanic as a tank with 4/5 STR accessories I will die, won't deny that so I hope these changes here soon eliminates stuff like that because it's honestly ridiculous and I don't feel tanky at all. I just want my HP and damage to compliment each other I rolled with str tanking in Gordias and end of ARR honestly didn't like it but I adapt whether I like it or not.
