Honestly if it were up to me, the degree of sustain I'd like to see with the tanks would be back somewhere to their ShB sustainability with some tweaks, which entails the following loosely:
All tanks:
- Remove Rampart's lv94 trait and revert their 40% mits back to its 30% variant.
- Give them all Convalescence to compensate the loss of their healing action received trait. I personally never liked that they're combined to Rampart.
PLD:
- Keeps Clemency as their situational sustain while letting them heal 50% more potency under Requiescat/Imperator.
- Remove Holy Shelltron HoT and replace it with 4s 400p barrier that buffs Shield Bash into a conal dps increase AoE if the barrier breaks.
- Turn Holy Circle/Spirit/Spellblade juices into stackable personal shields ONLY when they're cast under Requiescat/Imperator window.
- Remove Intervention's HoT. Move the HoT (placed on target ally) into Cover which now has 60s cooldown.
- Idk about Divine Veil but I'd probably combine both the cure potency and shield potency to make one bigger barrier. No, I definitely did not miss the ability requiring GCD heal to proc while also NOT shielding the PLD.
WAR:
- Revert back Raw Intuition (20% mit for 6s at 25s cd) and Nascent Flash (same as today but cure potency scales on damage dealt) to its ShB iteration.
- Bloodwhetting is now separate from Raw Intuition, with their cure potencies are turned into barriers that generates itself after every GCD & stackable. Each lasts for 6s. For each barrier broken will reset the recast of Upheaval/Orogeny.
- Remove HoT and healing component off Shake It Off but give a larger boost to its shield generation depending on how much cooldowns they dispelled idk the proper number.
- Idk what to do with Equilibrium but probably remove their HoT as well.
DRK:
- Nerf AD cure potency to 300p per target but separate them from CaS.
GNB:
Idk what to do with GNB but maybe give them the option to use Aurora and today's HoC only if they eat the damage loss by junctioning a (dead) healer in their party? I.e. Heart of Stone remains as it is, and only turn into Heart of Corundum if GNB Junctions a healer. At the very least, I don't think they should have access to all 300p regen from two Auroras and HoC like today without some cost.
Because I'm a ShB baby, I can only use that expac as a point of reference. And I recall clearly the trinity was still alive and well despite the possibility of going healerless in dungeons (with knowledge & skill) and the existence of some tank sustains.
