Tank Balance Achieved?

To build up on that, it's also nice to remember that unless you're in a competitive group that thrives for fast kills, no one cares if you keep your tank stance at the cost of a slighty slower kill, especially if the fight goes much smoother thanks to that safety net, and especially since you can't run Savage several times a week.

This is almost precisely how I handle Grit in pugs...

I'm sorry but if I'm in a pug with people I don't know healing me, I'm throwing my DPS aspirations to the wayside to do my real role and that's tank without dying. If I can plainly observe that my group is up to snuff and keeping me up ain't no thang and my healers seem bored then yeah, I'll turn Grit off and go ham, but I don't run with the "must be in DPS stance as much as possible" mindset in pugs. I run with a "only leave tank stance if things are going well and it doesn't seem like it will hinder us" mindset in pugs.

Tanks are definitely more balanced that HW imo where PLD was actually garbage. But still need a little fixing up. WAR meeds a few more potency buffs and so does DRK, as well as DRK needing maybe one more CD xD
