    All in all, Clemency + Passage are fine. I'd personally prefer more unique things about the other tanks rather than homogenization juice leaking out of all pipes.
    Sorry I meant the passive block rating not passage of arms auto correct is a lovely lady.

    I think more unique things to other tanks is great but if one gets something better then the other we can not complain then. Because fair is fair.

    Passive block is an okay mechanic. It serves as minor fluff mitigation over time and sets the groundwork for Bulwark to work and not just be Rampart 2.

    Where PLD can either Block or Parry (i.e. higher chance of one of them happening), the other tanks have passive HP/shield generation in Storm's Path, Souleater and Brutal Shell on top of Parry chance. At Lv84+ PLD also heals passively with attack spells now, but other tanks barring DRK have other bonus tools in place for it.

    All in all, good flavour. Neither too strong nor pointless. My only gripe is the sterilization they did with Block power and Block rate in Shadowbringers and beyond.
