How do we feel about tank damage right now?

[BarretOblivion]

And giving "1000 dps" fixes this, how?

Does it make Warrior less boring to play?

Does it change Dark Knight's gameplay loop?

See the problem? The problem is you're not fixing the problem.

And yeah. Game's pretty well balanced at the moment. Not perfectly, and the most glaring offensives to it aren't in the tank or healer role beyond one exception in each (Living Dead and Benediction), but beyond that glaring interaction, any tank pair and any healer pair are going to come out with similar end results.

Need I point out that they don't add new skills or major reworks until expansions usually? Chances of them getting these changes in two years? Slim to none thus those two tanks aren't likely going to get there needed changes at all.
So lets at least give tanks a short term help. Bringing them up to at least keep the current % baised off the current lowest DPS is a fair request. Like seriously how is it not for a short term change?
Healers are starting to out DPS tanks... and do I need to remind you SE's goal was supposed to be that healers were supposed to be healing MORE this expansion than they were in SB???
So why are they getting close or surpassing tanks?
Oh yeah... because healers said "F that" on the forums and SE cut that *sh*t* out by buffing their healing potencies to where they can heal almost like they did in SB.

And now we are here. Why are tanks ignored? DPS get thier requested changes, Healers get thier requested changes, so now tanks are asking for a buff to keep them in within a healthy line and we got told "No we are just going to buff your defenses..." OUR DEFENSES???? The only tank that needs a buff to that is GNB because its the ONLY tank that needs an OT to use their skills to help with some of the fights. ONE TANK. ONE and its the one that's doing the most damage.

Tanks don't need help. Groups are clearing content just fine as it is. All buffing tank damage would do is clear that content faster which doesn't solve any issue. This 1000 dps buff people keep spouting has no basis whatsoever other than "feels".

And healers are upset (to put it mildly) that they lost their damage due to a developer design decision that was failed to be realized. That's the fault of SE.

Healers are only out DPSing tanks in extreme cases. That has already been proven so that excuse doesn't work anymore. Also, news flash, healers heal fine. We don't want more healing. We want more to do when there's healing downtime.

Tanks. . . Ignored. Did you really just say that about a role that got a brand new job?

Basically, if you're going to spout a bunch of BS and hyperbole, go elsewhere.
