Instead of Auto block & Parry

[Tman]

regardless of what system they put in for tanking or how engaging it becomes, tanking ultimately turns into a pattern or prioty with cooldowns, and before you know it you'll be doing things without even thinking because you know something is about to happen. mechanics are 1 way to spice things up, along with combos, since these require you to actually pay attention. however over time mechanics get dull and combos will become routine, so the only real engaging part is doing as much as you can while actively maintaining threat or deciding what combo to use in a given situation.
