Improve reactiveness of tank gameplay

[Tunda]

In general i agree thats why i hope that 8.0 will big a really big shake up.
Or in more humorous tone, i hope yoshida and his team sunders the current system in a way not seen since the ancient world ;p

I couldn't agree more

This game can't have "reactiveness." Not in the current design.
The current design revolves around scripting. Everything is scripted and time-based. You're supposed to press X skill at Y time point, and that's it. Reactiveness will break that.

Reactiveness is a possible solution to the current healer problem, I'd say. Say, bosses will target random players with unpredictable, "unscripted" attacks, that require healers to react. That's the kind of healer gameplay I'd like to see.

Butt, as lotta people said, we'll have to see how much change they'll willingly do in the next major update.

Just please don't continue on the current path and add another bunch of "XXX-ready" upgrades.

If it could work for healers it can work for tanks too.
If you think about it we have currently sub-systems that have "Reactiveness" to it, healers are not the only one,

Monk shakra with brother hood, you cannot expect when you have 10 stacks is it on this GCD or the next GCD

It is hard to continue with the current design or we will see finishers on the current finisher type of gameplay style.

There should be something refresh to the design and that is what people are asking for as yoshi said.

If you do this, you are bad. Use Forbidden Chakra asap, do not wait for 10 Chakra. You gain nothing from doing that.

The game is really not giving people enough learning for entry level players..

Hall of novice is so basic

I think if we have good tutorial quests for different mechanic that would improve gameplay for most players

Example : if you see red circle use your red mitigation
If blue circle use blue mitigation
And so on

I agree with this. The game really doesn't prepare you for anything outside the very basics, and not even all the basics at that. I just feel that way about the game in general. So players don't use things or find things confusing, then the game gets nerfed in every conceivable way. It's unfortunate.
