Of course it wouldn't go well, go to literally any job forum and ask them if they'd like a nerf and the only answer you'll ever get back is a "Hell no!".

I think SE should stop caring what the playerbase thinks about nerfs, nobody will ever like getting their favourite job nerfed, but nerfs and buffs are both essential to balance. Look at the Expedient nerf, most SCH mains agreed that 20s of Sprint was too powerful and they accepted that the nerf had to happen.

Are you saying that tanks would throw a tantrum over a nerf when others would accept a nerf for the health of the game? If tanks would throw a tantrum for such a minor reason then I think SE shouldn't listen to them at all at that point.
