What if Tanks were designed like Healers?

there is a class of people who do enjoy perfecting things, but only to a certain limit.

Yes. That shouldn't be news to anyone. Heck, I'm in that class of people.

But here's the thing: There is absolutely no reason why my limit should be everyone's limit.

For example: I think AST is super pretty -- both in visual effects and in sound effects. I'd love to play it and no other healer on that basis alone. But f*** my life if I'm going to do some double-weaving constant-target-switching opener b.s. Sorry. I'll be the AST that single weaves everything, and if that's not absolutely perfect and optimal... I'm okay with that. I can take AST into normal mode content, get my dose of pretty, and clear that content just fine. If I'm not a good enough at AST for Extreme or Savage or Ultimate, so be it.

The people who want to take AST into that harder content can have their skill ceiling or skill expression or whatever they want to call it. I'm not so selfish as to deny them that. They, too, can have their super pretty class to play.
