Some thoughts on Level Sync and Abilities

[MariaArvana]

As someone who has been doing math work on tanks (and crafters), you're going to need to put some sources for that, because its something that nobody else is talking about.

From the theoryjerkers themselves, some nice hard math.

"AP and tank AP added. Tank mastery nerfs damage, so it has different tiers."

Then also in the TJ discord, there have been multiple discussions and maths to show tank's AP is only 2/3 as strong as a DPS's with equivalent gear due to tank mastery adjusting how AP scales on tanks.

The STR on those accessories was roughly 51 at the end of SB, giving it 76 total for tanks who melded. Now those same accessories jumped 100 some odd STR to 171, so tanks even when melded gained roughly 500 STR literally the moment SHB dropped, but their dps hadn't changed from level 70 due to tank mastery changing how their AP was calculated by weakening the worth of STR and nerfing them by 20-30% some odd. My point in bringing that up is to show that tank damage -was- nerfed anyway, as tanks would be doing closer to 11k-12k dps if tank mastery wasn't affecting their AP.
