    Could it be that WAR will be the physical tank with decent DPS, DRK will be the Magical tank with decent DPS and Paladin will be the defensive tank with crap DPS?

    It kind of makes sense considering the archetypes involved. WAR has enhanced self healing through their attacks, DRK could have enhanced MP regen and self healing through their attacks, and PLD has more passive DEF, and less dynamic self healing, along with the DPS differences, this would separate each of the tanks and give them each a niche to operate in.

    No. The increase in Magic Defense is likely intended to prevent repeats of the A4S/A12S Paladin non/limited viability due to magic based tank busters.

    Warrior is likely to be the stack management tank, Dark Knight the MP management tank and Paladin the streamlined "simple" tank. All 3 tanks should have a fairly similar level of output when played at the same level.
