SAMURAI SHOWDOWN

[Tanathya]

More tank jobs doesn't mean more tank players, correct, but it certainly doesn't hurt to try and get more. As opposed to giving tank players nothing and you can guarantee you'll see the number of tank players go down. Tank numbers staying the same is far better than tank numbers going down. And if they're smart they'll continue to add tank roles. Just look at WoW, every class they've added to the game can be a tank.

Nor I said it would hurt, but the idea that the more tank jobs, the better DF-wise has proven to be false. Everyone jumped on DRK when they released it, and almost exactly two months after, queues were the same as they always were. Does this mean they don't have to add more tank jobs? No. However, people need to stop thinking that a vast amount of tank jobs will somehow quicken the queues for everyone else; players will not play the role they don't like.

If they want another dps they can use any of the ton of FF jobs that can fit a DPS role, Dancer, Red Mage, Blue Mage, Ranger, etc. etc. etc. No need to waste Samurai that actually easily fits Yoshida's idea of tanks (Heavy armored defenders) as a dps job.

Fixed it for you.
