Another "I want to dps as a tank" thread. xD

On a more serious note, which FFXI tank meets your description, I'd very much like to know!

What SE needs to do is make WAR feel more like they're doing dps. They started out good with the self-heal path they chose. However, when they had to change WAR, they took the easy way out by just buffing us giving us more mitigation. They should have taken the time and redesign the self-healing skills (tweak, add). I guess that would also mean to change the content which would be far too much work since WARs did not scale with conten (<--- main problem right there).

I do like how WAR plays now and it's on par with PLD. I agree with you up to a certain point: it would be nice to have WAR play more like a berserker. No dps gear and stuff though.. We just need abilities/traits/side-effects which buffs our dps for short times or a "berserker stance" which buffs our dps a bit.
