Honestly, adding GNB was the mistake. HW didn't have great tank balance either, but they did have tank identity. If PLDS would have got an AOE combo, and higher dmg it would have been pretty damn tight race. Now we have DPS tank = GNB the best Off tank = PLD and 2 useless choices with 0 identity DRK and WAR.
What does having a new class have anything to do with homogenized mitigation tools?

It was going to happen with or without GNB. They simply took the easy way out, same with gap closers.
