Radical thought...remove the off-tank?

[Miste]

How would this affect savage statics though?

If groups no longer need two tanks then people who prefer to play tank may have a hard time finding room in a group for them since the savage raid community is already a smaller percentage of the player base. The meta will also severely impact certain tanks if one tank is simply better or easier to manage in certain fights. So one tank might end up meta and then two other tanks get left out....

I mean I remember tanks being upset about Zurvan EX for example since the fight wasn't planned out well enough so that it was possible to not need two tanks so they were having trouble getting groups if I remember correctly anyway.

It would mean, play war or gtfo

Um... What? Does not compute. Right now PLD is the preferred tank for raiding due to its mitigation and utility. WAR is fine and can be used for raiding, but I don't know a single raid group that would say this. During HW, yes, but not in SB.

Every raid group I asked in SB has said WAR is the preffered MT now due to Inner beast effectively giving it more mitigation uptime than PLD.

Hahaha, ok. Then it would mean play pld or gtfo. I mean really, as it relates to her comment it would mean "play <insert tank here> or gtfo". Is that better for you?
