Tanks and healers.

[DamianTenbe]

I m seeing a lot of comments about healers and tanks not wanting to dps. BUT what if I as a healer and tank love to dps and stance dance. I love the thrill and reward coming out of it and the decision making. I get if you don't feel save doing that and you want to play safe. BUT if they Will keep making changes that classes will be easier and straightforward I Will loose the interest to be playing the game. That's what I feel happened to wow. Sometimes making game easier isn't the solution in my opinion. It's the problem with people being strict about the playstyle not the game. I m just hoping that stance dance will still be a thing for tanks which I don't think it will be after reading the notes for SB. Anyone agree disagree? Let me know what you think.

...Did you really have to open this can of worms with yet another thread?

I mean it's fine to say you want stance dancing to stay for tanks, but... you loaded this in the worst way possible.

What do you mean I loaded this in a worst way? Am I being rude in my discussion :c ?

Healer DPS arguments always turn into 100+ page barely-not-flamewars. Tank DPS... there's not really real argument there, it's people trolling about the healer DPS stuff. If you're lucky it won't move over to this thread but... it's a dangerous thing to bring up, especially if you want your thread to stay on topic. Not rudeness so much as playing with nitroglycerin.

Thanks for letting me know. After all I'm still new to the forum :3.

Here I'm praying SE reconsider war, we don't only lose ton of skill an utility but also a penalty for stance dancing.(the game punish you by using the stacks you need to use your skills)
I'm gonna give it a go but I just don't feel exited about the job anymore.
Been a war since 1.0 an never feel this way about it, not even in 2.0 xD.

I don't know how about my tank brothers but if my tank job will be only about keeping agroo in dungeons. I will be admiring paladins as a dragoon behind the mobs ;3.. I love dark knight and warrior but if my only reason to throw in some dps is as off tank by clicking cleave 6 times in a row I might not come back to tanking. Being said that stormblood is not out yet and nothing is final I m just sharing my concerns about the info they provided. I still have to experience the content to be 100 % sure. I will give it a go but that's what I hate about abilities revamp in mmo. I was provided with the gameplay I like and admire and now it's being taken away from me. Sorry if my input is another thread of baby cry but at least I'll have the feeling I tried. Thank you for reading.

Tank dps isnt really an issue. In fact if you check out the Tank section with any regularity it is most often filled with threads of tanks looking to increase their dps while doing their primary job. SE has never really been a fan of us tank stance dancing, ala SB changes, but give it some time and we will figure out ways to push it.

Healer dps is a classic emotion vs. logic debate. Good luck ever changing that one. It is so bad people here dont even want to mention it for fear it would bring toxicity to the forums. *shrugs* Until SE take an official stance on it and conform gameplay to that position - it will continue ad nauseam.
