@Naoki Yoshida-> Make Samurai a Tank class!

[Lewtskie]

I swear it would be a god send if SE could just introduce new Jobs like SAM and give it the ability to play as either a DPS or Tank Job role in Group Content.

Of course they have to make the system work that so when a player joins as a Tank Role they are locked as a Tank Job with the ability adjusted to Tank Role and if they join as a DPS they are locked as a DPS and their skills are adjusted as a DPS Role.

They already can do this with Stances by having a Tank Stance and DPS Stance at level 1 and which stance the Job is in adjust the Job skills to that Job Role but no they have to stick with 1 Role per Job.

My idea came about after some time playing ESO. Have an alternate weapon for each job that shifts their role. Just drop stances, divvy up their skills, but I also had the idea to let them switch on the fly in duties. Just a fleshed out version of stance dancing, but something that every Job could do.

While indeed I am sure DRK did to a point, the data does not support this as a solid fact. It sure as heck lays credence to it but without a detailed breakdown of how much of that 2% is entirely new tanks, how much of the 2% went to DRK and data like that, I am sorry, I don't see this as definitive proof that DRK increased tank pop, I'm not saying it didn't, because the data shows it did to a degree and I'll concede that point, But I am saying that I don't think the entirety of that 2% is thanks to DRK. The data just doesn't support that argument.

If I had to make a guess, the information tracked could either be the number of individuals who took DRK to 60, or possibly tracking the number of completed duties as DRK over the other two. Could be both, and then other tidbits of information. It can be taken that DRK's introduction was a positive impact, just not something people should attach themselves to so closely.
