Half the content in the game as a tank I get to ignore 80% of the fight and just stand there and do the same stuff I do for every other fight. (and that's with it being second coil/ex primals having things to actually do as a tank). And you might say "yeah DPS do that too" but DPS done well actually have complicated rotations to maintain and a lot to focus on when trying to optimize damage; plus are the ones that take care of the majority of mechanics.

    That said, skillchains were not terribly interesting. The only reason they ever were in XI was because XI was so incredibly slow paced and braindead they were one of the only things that involved any level of coordination or reaction at all. I'd personally rather the introduction of more skills like Cover or Goad which allow more interactions with other players than arbitrary combo checks slapped down every x seconds.
