I can't tell you how many times I saw fending drop and everyone just says "lol garbage" and it just hits the floor, that's why they changed it because they realized that tanks are getting shafted. That's the reason they changed the definitions of their own game, they saw the numbers of people doing Alex Savage and realized that they need to do something different which is why the thread "Quality of the game for 3.1 and onward" was addressed to the community.

This change is for the better i'd rather be able to need on all the fending that is meant for my job to play it optimally without fear of fighting my other 2 DPS friends for said items, as for raiding yeah they're going to change difficulty so they see more clears in their stats. Alexander so far has been a let down and the playerbase realize this and so do the devs so they need something fresh in order to reinstate HW as an expansion no one wants to be like "man this expac sucked 2.0 was good, 3.0 sucked but least they got it right in 4.0".

As for you saying they're whiners the only whiner I see is you complaining that everyone is getting what they want but what you don't realize is that there are 2 kinds of tanks:

good tanks that know their CDs and can support their party with their own DPS and bad tanks that don't pop a single CD for TBs/Massive pulls VIT and STR have nothing to do with player skill good tanks will still clear content than bad tanks and it's a fact this game isn't going to get worse from 3.2 it's a step in the right direction compared to the content lull we've had since 3.0-3.1.
