A question to the producer and dev’s.

Here is my question to the dev’s of SE; How does job balancing work according to you guys, what is the logic behind it?
I still fail to understand any of it. We showed our concerns with this before and we’ve been told to “calm down” and “it’s all subject to change”.

In HW you had 3 tanks where 1 was perfectly balanced (WAR) and one needed attention (PLD). DRK was designed to be in the middle somewhere and it was.

What is the logic behind breaking/ bringing down 2 of the tanks while significantly buffing the one tank that got left behind. How does this make them all equally balanced?
The way I see it, all you had to do is fix the flaws PLD had to make him compete with the other 2 and job balancing was done for tanks.

Now instead; PLD got a massive buff, DRK got destroyed to be boring, not fun/brain dead and possibly even useless depending on who you ask, and WAR got nerfed by having his unique tanking capabilities removed.
