Are there more tanks playing now?

Being a few hours in, is it safe to assume that there are more tanks playing now? Just trying to gather information to see if I'll have some queue competition now.

I think it's more the other way round.

Maybe i'll stop playing tank with this shitty nerf and switch to healer or monk.

The Tank exodus has begun. (Thankfully I switched to Monk before the patch when I saw the PVP DPS nerf alongside the already reduced damage in PVE. DRK has like zero anything in PVP utility wise compared to PLD/War)

They probably.. Should have done things a liiittle bit different.

Dunno about that. It was really close but I decided to play the paladin this season instead of my WHM.

The dps tanks may stop playing now, mainly as a form of protest, but I am sure these will get replaced by the players who disliked the dps tank meta.

I would have been fine with the DPS nerf happening in PVE, but with a second extra nerf happening in PVP , Dark Knight just won't be contributing the same to my enjoyment , and Monk and DRK have similar CC/utility, with DRK having more defense /health.

My reason is strictly PVP. Though I am interested to see how things will be in PVE going forward, but I'd personally rather only play one main job in both content at a given time.

Sure I liked the dmg I could do pre 3.2 as a war, but I was always neutral to the str meta. But for war especially I can understand the anger, less damage = less survivability since self healing is a large part of that. We were pushed by SE and their design to go str if we wanted our groups to clear some content, we were more or less pushed by the community to go str since people wanted faster runs. I would not be surprised if we see less people play tank now, and people complaining about those tanks who need time to adjust how they tank which might end with even less tanks.

Losing DPS, having agro issues and what not. I don't think it made many tanks happy.
