Come off it.

In WoW I soloed current content World Bosses, tanked heroic Raid bosses without a healer from 30%, soloed most of Mythic +10 bosses. I could take tankbusters that were meant to be shared with 8 other raid members by myself with a combination of 4 cd's and perfect timing.
This game is not WoW (that was in the past anyway, the game is rubbish now) and DK's were silly good at solo. But the ordinary guy just died while the player who knew that toolkit inside out could do amazing things. You were equally responsible for your survival for an entire fight, not just tankbusters. That's what I'd like to see more of. That was tanking.

In ff14 our best is "I soloed 15% of a wet noodle boss on casual theme park mode". It's pathetic that we think that's great and highlights just how bad tanking is.
