What have you done?

DRK doesn't.

That's subjective. IMO it's infinitely better than the horrible "spam DA" nonsense DRK was in SB. I mained DRK in HW, and quit it because of how bad it was in SB. The current iteration, while not near HW's high standards, is actually enjoyable to me.

Why is using Tank Stance BAD?!?! Even as OT, turning it on would blunt some AoE damage.

Basic run-down of this comes down to simple logic. Blunting raid-wide AOE damage is and was basically meaningless. Dropping grit/going into your DPS stance was a massive DPS increase, and higher DPS = higher clear time. Something dies faster, that's a form of mitigation. This still applies but seeing as tank stances don't exist anymore, eh.

The best thing about tanking now is that it makes watching Netflix that much easier.

I can't speak for WAR or DRK, but PLD has only become more interesting and fun to play in SHB, not less so. Losing the enmity combo and shield swipe was a small price to pay for what we gained.

Levelling SMN now, but PLD is looking very goooood as my main tank, I like what they did with it. Guess itll be Cecil Harvey time, and upgrade from DRK to PLD

Just thought I'd add my butthurt onto the pile here and say I also hate what they did to DRK. The previous way it was played at least had a bit of nuance to it. There was decision making depending on the fight and the situation. Now you just do a cookie-cutter rotation and pop TBN if there's a tank buster, and congrats son, you're playing DRK! It's honestly sad.
