    Your tripping tank balance is in almost the same spot as healer. You have ast and pld that are hour two must take classes. Other two for each are flex. Drk is the better option for tanks and whm sch are on equal footing. The class in the worst spot is warrior by a good margin it has low dps and zero raid utility. I'm a warrior main and I'm not even progging on war in going either pld or drk cause drk pld is the best comp for prog. Even after pld out dps's war and pld is putting out the same. And both pld and drk are way easier to play. If you are just doing casual stuff still go either pld or drk, the ear is really complex and takes a lot more work to get results that are similar to drk or pld.oh and a lot of pf's are just excluding war so there's that too.

    Say what now? Man everyone complains over the smallest of things. It's a new system give it a chance. Over all tanks are balanced in their own way. Healer wise AST seems to be top pick...for now and can change. I've encountered some very talented healers of all 3 classes that have proven themselves understand their job in tough situations, raids, and large pulls in newer areas. I've been in tank groups were some complain that it's not their fault the job was nerfed and is an invalid statement. Met reliable and amazing PLD / WAR/ DRK. People just have to relearn some aspects on the jobs. So putting them down because people are afraid of change isn't a valid argument. It's called practice and patience.

    Agree about the raid utility, but literally the only range that war isn't in the top dps spot for tanks is the top 9 percentile... While I get that you fall in that top 9 percentile, even your own war parses are higher than your pld. War is gonna be the goto secondary tank for speed-runs/farming after you no longer need the utility.
