Tank limit break

[Nimin]

So, Tanks pretty much never use their limit break since it is subpar in lost situation. Right? Kinda lame. Could a seperate LB-meter per role be something to consider? In a raid for instance that would give every role a chance to use their limit break. But maybe they need to be nerfed then. Since i always play tank i cant remember the last time i used limit break.

Would be nice if the Limit Break would change, depending on if you had Tank stance on or off. If you have Tank Stance on, you get a Defense Limit Break, if it's off, you get a Damage Limit Break. That way a Tank who is the Last Man Standing, might have a chance to still bring home the win.

Tank limit breaks are used in a number of situations. They get used at scripted moments where you're designed to use it to survive a big boss attack during a raid encounter. They're also used to extend the fight so that you can see more of it during progression, and can be used to cheese and completely bypass certain mechanics so that your team either doesn't need to learn them or can gain more uptime as a result.

Call me a bad tank, but I tank LB for big trash pulls for extra defense if the healer can’t keep up.

The last time I used the Tank LB was Byakko EX. Many people hate that fight but I love it because it gives me the chance to use it.

I use it last 5 seconds if no one uses it because at that rate at least the healers can focus their dps in and not worry about healing. Seems like dps don't like using it lately. Very rarely will I ever use the tank LB too unless I think we can't survive a stack mechanic while our party has 4 people left or something.

There are times i can be useful yes, but it is a rare thing and it is mostly subpar compared to the other roles Limit Break. ¨
I stand by my idea of giving every role a seperate LB-meter or make a big overhaul of the LB-system.

if it is used in scripted moments then its superficial and isn't impactful nor does it turn the tide of battle like the other role limit breaks.

Yesterday I was running a low-level dungeon as a healer instead of my usual tank, and the brand-new tank in the party pulled the limit break during a trash pull. The quote/unquote "Mentor" samurai cussed him out and told him tanks NEVER use the limit break. (My problems with a "Mentor" cussing a newbie tank aside...) I didn't have the heart to step in and say "Well, hang on a minute..." because yes, tanks will most of the time not need to pull the limit break, but to say "never" is not quite correct.

Each team should have 3 different limit breaks for deffence, heal and dps.

Right now its plain boring and dps only uses it.
