What should be the next tank job

[Fate_Testarossa]

I would love Beastmaster to be honest. They could utilize pets that would tank for them. Imagine commanding a giant ass bear that will tank stuff for you *-*

This just isn't possible by any feasible means. If Beastmaster is to be a tank, the pet absolutely could not tank for them. There are far too many problems and difficulty in trying to pull off such a concept. The pet would be merely an accessory or the other option of Beastmaster being a mounted tank, riding into battle atop a beast is far more interesting a concept and doesn't come with the truckload of problems the version you suggested.

I'd love a Judge class. Spooky looking armor just like in Final Fantasy XII, wielding hammers and rule cards. They could be tech based, and the trainer could be a rogue Judge from Garlemald more obsessed with justice than serving his emperor. Yoshi P. could announce it by wearing a Judge Dredd shirt.

I love that idea xD

Any answer that isn't GEO is simply incorrect. We've got too many damn slashing tanks, it's time for the day of the bell-wielding, spell-casting, bludgeoning tank.

I think it's possible that gunblade and Judge will go together, a DPS sharing gear with DRG.

Eh I'm kinda feeling towards Judge.
I think we're missing one archetype of tank which is Reflective. It could also be proc based on rule cards via gauge mechanic.

I like the idea of giving them a gabranth like weapon. I feel like if it had a Hammer or gavel it'd be way to similar to WAR.

MT stance - Litigation (Double bladed thief sword) Reduces damage dealt and taken. Reflects 10% of damage taken.

OT stance - Prosecution (dual sword) increases damage dealt and Atk speed.

Honestly I would like to see them add lore and not just reuse old lore.. That being said a class that uses a hammer be it one handed or two-handed would be cool, Geomancer could be tweaked to accommodate this. Blue Mage could use a whip, cane or dagger (honestly there isn't a "traditional blue mage weapon." Heck it could be a gauntlet too, but the concept of a magical bio weapon hardened against monsters by becoming nearly a monster itself is kinda cool (pulling some inspiration from Aht Urgan of 11 fame.) A magitek themed tank (Magitank?) would be cool too.

Was talking with some peeps about a tank that had a bunch of floating swords, seems like a cool idea too. Something like Joachim from Castlevania: Lament of Innocence

Every always puts the wrong stance for Tank stance and DPS stance.

The Tanking stance should be the dual wielding (Since dual wielding is actually often used to guard and riposte at the same time), while the DPS stance would be the combined pole weapon (More strength and leverage can be applied holding a weapon with two hands = more damage).
