Actually, my character's are higher then that, like you said, Lodestone must be behind, or wrong or something because my characters are higher then that. That has nothing to do with what we were talking about up above... You mentioned tanking while NOT in Grit stance and being just fine which I find hard to believe. Not saying its not possible but to say that healers were dpsing more then healing I think is a little far fetched.
I think having issues PLAYING the class vs the class having issues itself is a big difference. The class is brand new, its bound to have problems. From my own personal experiences and many other tanks in my FC, we all agree that the DRK is the squishiest of the tanks, and while dealing decent damage for a tank, is still behind the Warrior. Now, I have yet to hit 60, get better gear and get all my abilities so it may change but CURRENTLY at my lvl it has its fair share of issues and survivability is the biggest one I see with it.
