That's not because tanking requires any special skill. Its because of the trinity mechanic where tanks have a button that says "ignore the guy killing me and bash my skull in for no reason". I'm still learning to tank but its about the same as playing my DPS properly; just easier in some fights by nature of doing nothing but standing around instead of running rotations while avoiding AOE.
