You can throw in new Tank and Healer classes left and right if you will, in the end roulettes will still give out the 'Adventurer in need' bonus to either of them 95% of the time once the 'new' shine has worn off.

Those roles aren't for everyone, while DPS can be played by anyone without bigger punishment other than longer dungeon clears.
There's a reason why healers/tanks/supports in nearly every mmo, moba and competetive pvp game are the least played class/role.
While undoubtedly true, their changes to Scholar inevitably drove many away. That is seemingly the issue right now. Current tanks and healers went the DPS route due to their changes.
