I feel like that's what they did with NIN. And yeah they buffed DRG too, and realistically if they ever nerfed WAR I think it would only be partial/slight nerfs like what NIN had, with the other two tanks buffed to close the leftover gap.

And that makes some sense, but I don't think the community is ever going to come to a consensus on what "too powerful" is. o.o

I think we get eachother now.
