Yeah it's kind of a double whammy. The role was simplified and then they also gutted the damage? It's rough. I've always loved tanking but it's sapping the enjoyment out of the role for me.

I main war at the moment and seeing me at the bottom of the list feels just weird.
Haha I was legit just telling a friend that I might have to cut parser when tanking cause it's depressing. I end up just feeling frustrated at how little I contribute to damage considering doing damage is still like 99% of a tank's job. Handling mechanics and maintaining uptime perfectly and feeling good about it then checking the numbers is... whew.
