How do we feel about tank damage right now?

[J-Reyno]

Again, you were the one speaking of being "rewarded for your effort". Do you expect to be taken seriously if you claim that keeping enmity requires any effort ?

No, your statement, in the sense of this very thread you created, was that you didn't felt rewarded as a tank by your DPS number. The thing is that whatever primary tank focus you use as a metric, which are enmity and survival, that DPS number is all you need to perform optimally and without any risk.

My statement was that tank accomplishes its primary objective by dealing damage. I'll quote it for you.

Yes, and the tank accomplishes its primary objective by dealing damage.

You decided to interject with semantics that "enmity" shouldn't be considered a primary focus because you don't have to optimize damage to keep enmity. It doesn't matter. You DO have to deal damage to tank. You WILL spend most of your time dealing damage. Tank ARE designed to deal damage and ARE intended to optimize their damage by the devs' own admission, and doing damage DOES require effort.

I don't care if you want to call it enmity or not, nothing you have said or can say will change that damage is absolutely a primary and necessary function of the role.
