New tanking abilities in the expansion thread!

A gap closer - yes please!

I feel like a gap closure isn't quite needed in FF14 right now. I wouldn't mind seeing one tank get it, like the Warrior getting a Bull Rush type move and seeing how it feels after this expansion, but just him.

I'd want the Paladin to get an extra AoE Move, and the Warrior to get an extra defensive move so we don't have them pigeon-holed into Main and Off tank as much in the expansion.

main reason for pld being mt is becuase literally all he has as ot is halone and fracture
he runs out of tp with no swipe procs

nothing to do with warrior being "inferior" or "squishier"
war is only worse than pld when you try to play war like pld.
war aint no 3 button dance

For a tank, i agree you don't need a gap closure but a Melee dps especially monks, you are sooooo wrong about not needing it. Your 3 GS stacks depends on shoulder tackle most of the time.

Tanks need a Gap closer....Chasing around adds and then running back is a DPS killer. ex would be T13 phase 2 dragons, you can't OT near Bahamut so there is always a large Gap once the add is down. It could also be useful for opening combos instead of loltomalob or moving out of AoE.

I think i have to rephrase my words. I think that it's ok for a tank to have gap closer but it's not as important as it is to a DPS, I'm replying to someone saying that gap closure is not needed in FFXIV.

I did a WAR post which I thought was mega cool and no one liked :, ( - here's a PLD one!!!

Paladin should get a skill that pulls the target to the player. Warrior should get charge.

Reverse that. Warriors already have a chain to pull shit with and paladins have a shield
