The people who would be put off by it are the people who refuse to play tank classes. People who are already tanks, will flock and stay with said class because it's new, and its a great sword wielding class, which is one of the most popular weapons in mmos. We WILL see more people tanking for sure when it comes out, but its pretty certain paladins and warriors are gonna lose their spotlight and most tanks will be DRK.
BUT I would love the ffxiv community to prove me wrong when 3.0 comes out. Nothing is worse than having one class dominate the population of an already unpopular role
