Tank Stance Redesign

[whiskeybravo]

It seems ridiculous to me that there is even an argument about whether tanks should be required to do tank things. Of course they should! They're tanks!

At the end of the day, what happens in the scenario "threat" becomes the main mechanic of tanking? Literally nothing changes except we've taken a hit to our damage output in the process. Oh, now I do a butcher's block instead of a storms path. Distinction without a difference.

I'd prefer a situation where tank stance is required due to high damage intake opposed to just forcing it on tanks because we are supposed to do "tank things"

While you may prefer these sorts of restrictions to ensure a more genuine tank experience, I guarantee people will quit in droves, thus defeating the whole purpose. It may feel more "tank-y" but that hardly matters when no one's playing it.

Key point.
