Nobody seems to have mentioned this, but even if SE did make a parry tank this has an almost 0% chance of happening. The parry skill would be amazing for any tank, but unfortunately LNC cross class skills also bring Blood for Blood to the table. The devs would have to be out of their minds to trust FF players with a tank that has access to that skill. Safer method is that all tanks get GLD cross class skills and MRD cross class skills. MRD can theoretically be swapped out for PGL (second wind, mantra, featherfoot) or in the event of a casting tank, THM (Swiftcast, surecast) or even better, ACN (Virus, eye for an eye, physick). NIN could be perhaps useful (Shade shift and Goad), but I don't think it's enough.
