So much truth it BURNS.

Despite being a power mad WAR. I certainly do miss those moments when my HP bar barely drops below 60%. The fact that we have to choose between glass cannon and meat wall is certainly a refreshing aspect in this meta but the downside in its views amongst the community can cause far too much stress on a classtype with already too much stress to begin with. Whichever path you take, you don't really become "better" as a whole as you only specialize more in one aspect. Tanks having to suffer from the constant paranoia of what is best for the situation, always and constantly just to appease the other people who will always complain regardless of whichever decision you make. It is INFURIATING.

Wao this boss is dying so slowly, why the hell do you have so little deeps tank?
Wao your HP bar is moving so fast and giving me a heart attack! Why the hell do you have so little HP tank?

Pentamelds are great until you start thinking, wao if I had str/vit accessories I could've done more deeps/survived harder(?).

Put on more STR accessories! Put on more VIT accessories! Buy more Pentamelds!

You're a bad tank in one context or another regardless of whichever you pick.
