What about not changing the current system, since it's actually enjoyable for a lot of tanks?

I really don't understand the problem with stancedancing, or why it ruins the 'feel' of being a tank. Do people just think heavily armored fighters never go on the offensive or something?

If anything, FFXIV's tanks are closer to the actual namesake - not only does it have the armored bit down, but now it has that lovely cannon as well.
