What if DNC is SHOMHOW a DPS?

Tanking is not hard. Healing might not be either. You know what makes both hard. The Players. Random dungeon/trials/(raids?) always has one or two people unhappy with how either of the two roles are doing their things. Healers, DPS! Tanks! Pull to the boss! Don't worry. Neither of you will suffer greatly if neither of the two are exceptional with it.

I refuse to tank for random people. I'll take the 20-40 min DPS queues thanks. You all can thank the other people who declare the right and wrong way to do things.

That said. Since Gunbreaker is a Tank. It's mostly likely a given that the next Job is a Healer. There is no way they are giving tanka a new one and not healers, cause I do agree, these two roles do need something new. I've done PLD since ARR... I switched to DRK because hey, something new, PLD became very boring for me, I needed something new if I was going to continue tanking with my little group.

That's true for all roles though, dps'ing is hard too when the tank and/or healer suck. Constantly grabbing aggro from the tank and dying when the healer can't be bothered to heal. Personally I find it way easier to tank myself to not have to deal with duty finder tanks. Bad dps are the least damaging to a dungeon run or whatever.

I don't really understand finding fault in players wanting healers to dps and tanks to do big pulls, it's just more efficient that way. As a dps I find it infuriating when a tank pulls 2 mobs at a time, as a healer it might be more stressful to do big pulls but that's usually only if the tank is bad (not using cooldowns/badly geared), it's so boring to heal most dungeons anyway that I dps just to have something to do, throwing a cure II every 5 seconds isn't very engaging gameplay to me.

For myself I hope gunbreaker will be fun to play and that it'd more dps oriented like warrior, I've mained warrior since 3.5 and I'd like something new as well. I've played paladin and dark knight (enough to get all of the tank mounts) and neither of them come even close to warrior when it comes to the fun factor for me.
