Objective Considerations about the new tanks in ShB! Discuss :)

Remove TA from NIN?! That’s absurd!! TA is the best thing in the entire game lol

Right now I can tell the best tank is the PLD for dmg and mitigation.

War is still the same and can still do great, I enjoy the new RI and Trill buff tho.

Drk is behind defences wise certainly but I love the class now definitely.

GNB miss burst dmg windows but the defensive tool kit it’s great, I love the HoL that’s just basically RI just longer duration but less pot

TA is the worst thing in the game, because you have to build around it, and that means burst will always be better than sustained DPS. I don't know what SE was thinking with both DRK changes (lost the whole mechanical identity it had, with MP management and fast-paces combos) and removing every synergy in the game BUT Trick Attack. Just ditch TA too, boom, both burst and sustained are now equally valid.
