So does every hate new PLD now?

[Lyth]

The reason why you don't rebalance numbers immediately after a rework is because there's a learning curve associated with making changes. PLD currently has a much bigger positive skew than the other tanks, which indicates that there's a lot more variation in performance of the bottom 50% of players than the top. Ultimately, that's either going to resolve with time, or it'll persist and indicate that there's actually a problem in the design difficulty.

There isn't a hard binary between 'being good with raid buffs' or not. If two non-buff providers have the same damage over time profile, by definition they have both rDPS parity and identical contributions under raid buffs. People just need to stop equating the latter with aDPS, because that's not what it measures.
