to those saying mobs don't hit harder since SB, l call bs.

yes they do hit harder, bosses as well. A tank can use the CD well, and still get killed if max pulling hw style. Tank no longer have foresight which raised defense. Drks only have 2 buffs, shadow wall and blackest knight. Shadow wall only lasts 10 second. Rampart and the 20% parry boost last 20 seconds. And blackest knight is only 5 second and consumes a large bit of mp.

when my g.f tanks she pops shadow> ramp > parry boost skill. then re uses on cd. She tries to time blackest night with tank busters, but will use it to help mitigate damage as well.

if tanks didn't loose vit damage, things would be easier, as she would get hate and was able to spam her soul eater combo to keep her hp up. Now dps near take aggro off her to where she can't stop spamming AD/enmity combo/ unleash.

tbh ppl keep saying "using cd well" yet never mention HOW to use CD well.
