Paladin weakest Tank now

[Absimiliard]

Some accusations or something

Ah, so we're resorting to ad hominems now. Baseless ad hominems no less.

Quit moving the goal posts. This is a discussion about whether or not tank DPS matters (and more specifically if PLD's awful damage is acceptable). This is not a discussion about optimal play. If you're playing your job even remotely close to how SE intended (and do note that they are also leaning into the tank = blue DPS idea, not just the community) then you should be able to clear most content. At no point has this been disputed. That being said, Savage progression can at times very close. Having your tanks being able to push decent DPS - not even necessarily great, even if it's just average for their job - helps with that a lot. PLD is in a position where most groups don't want them because of how far behind their damage is lagging at both the "average" and optimal levels. People will say "oh, it's only 10%," but that 10% can easily be the difference between clearing or wiping to an enrage timer.

What the "average player" will notice is that they just wiped at 2% on a boss their team had successfully completed the mechanics of, 2% that wouldn't have been there if they hadn't brought a PLD over DRK or GNB.
