    This kinda makes tanking a bit more boring than it used to be, because cooldowns don't really matter you can just spam them all the time and very very rarely have a problem doing so. there's very very rarely a wrong time to use them.

    as a tank you focus on enmity and dps. cooldowns are pretty much an afterthought that you can pop whenever you like because it really doesn't matter if you use them or not.

    It'd be nice personally to see cooldowns and survival more important than dps especially from a tank perspective. cooldowns and mitigation are entirely useless which is why pld is in need of "major changes"

    I would like to see this even in dungeons, They are not needed honestly, espescially if you have a half-decent healer. But then again, How many tanks right now do not or don't know how to use them properly. i think we would see either a big decrease in people playing tank or alot of people raging at tanks if they made it harder, sadly enough
