Tank Balance

I think that they can safely expand on PLD's gameplay...after level 50.
Leveling from 1 to 50 and doing all mandatory ARR content is plenty enough to learn how to play tank at a smooth pace.

I think we might see it become more complex in 4.0, yes. At 60, PLD is nearly (though not quite) as complex as WAR was at 50, at least in terms of basic rotational stuff. It's still simpler than 50 WAR when you start getting into proper IB timing, Defiance-dropping, and so on, so there's room to add some fiddly bits 60+. I don't see them making huge changes to the 50-60 kit, though.

For me, I don't see them adding skills at the next expansion. There's only so much skill you can fit into hotbars to easy access.

I'm thinking towards traits, and traits don't change much of the gameplay.

And 4.0 is still a long time away

Besides, when Yoshi-P talked about HW, he said that ARR was the "easy introduction" and that HW where the game would become more complex and more difficult. Well...for now, HW just follows the exact same footsteps of ARR...and I wonder if he didn't already say that 4.0 will be "more complex and difficult"

I'm really surprised we got 5 abilities to begin with for HW, honestly. I agree about ability bloat--if they want to add abilities for 4.0, they'll definitely have to do something about it.
