What do you guys think is the cause of severe lack of Tank users?

[Lyth]

I didn't say healer. I said non-tank.

As in, every single DPS and Healer job would need to see about a 24.5% reduction.

In order to get Tanks to 12% and -only- attain it by reducing healer damage, you would be reducing healer damage output by 121% - as in bringing the healer is worth less than leaving the slot empty.

Hang on one second. Wasn't the crux of your arguments in both threads that damage isn't an important consideration for tanks? i.e.

If your only reason to tank is the rainbow bar, the devs aren't the problem.

And now you're stating that if healers don't do the damage that they do, they don't have any raid value? That seems inconsistent.
