I mean if you're going to do a dick measuring contest here, there's really no tank that could take the title of "Dev's Favorite" other than WAR.

Everything you complained about with WAR happened to DRK as well except in this case, it wasn't actually replaced with anything. The class has been largely the same since Stormblood.
Man I wish DRK got cool things like Primal Rend.

And while I get that "fun" isn't exactly a design intent the developers has ever had in regards to tank jobs in this game, the fact they even changed overpower makes me very confused as it means they looked at their available data for tanks in dungeon content and actually came to the conclusion that WAR wasn't easy enough there.

I was also taken aback by looking at the tank kits in PVP, how WAR's the only one that even really feels complete while the others are just sorta...bad unless you're just taking into account PLD's ability to not die or cheese certain frontline maps.
