    That's nice dear.

    But here on the FFXIV forums, this point is irrelevant.

    This person is complaining about "Tanks" having too many edged weapons, and cites Ninja, Red Mage and Samurai (In addition to the actual tanks PLD/DRK/WAR/GNB)

    It's like me then responding with "Nuh uhh! My Monk in D&D campaigns was always a Tank and they ran around using their fists to punch things! (With some Kama to slice up zombies on the side, but that's because slashing bonuses)"

    Sure, technically correct. But not particularly relevant to the discussion at hand

    Which was not what was intended of them. Players found a way to use them as tanks, but that doesn't mean they were supposed to be tanks.

    And SE kept nerfing NIN's ability to tank consistently over the patches and expansion until NIN became a back up thing.
