Adding all of this wont change a thing I'm afraid. You can make the class have good dps, fun to play and awesome skill names and most people wont go back.

It is not that tanking is un-fun or boring, it the THE PLAYER BASE! Rude, selfish people that belittle/rage at new tanks, thus, making the player not want to try anymore.

And even then, if you make it fun, some will still Fate Grind and then run with their FC to learn their skills and probably STILL NOT do anything outside of dailies (And still incur a shortage because they will only queue up once).

As much as I do like the suggestion, it wont work as long there are toxic, nasty players out there.
