Tanking not for me. To much going on and to stressful for my liking. While everyone I met were awesome and nice, I freak out at my own self. Among other stuff that not to my liking. I decide not to continue.
Back to rdps I go. I tried.
At least you tried. Tanking isn't for everyone, but if you stick with it you can learn it, just like anything. Patience is a virtue. And sometimes DPS or healers don't have ANY patience. I would go out on a limb and say you would probably hate the level 60+ style of tanking of wall to wall, wall to wall, boss, wall to wall, wall to wall, boss, wall to wall, wall to wall, boss, end. It gets REALLY old....REALLY fast. I don't tank in duty finder anymore for that reason....tanking in duty finder is just BORING. Which is why i'm SO excited for variant and criterion+savage dungeons. I'm hoping this promotes SMART dungeon crawling instead of bloodwhetting+inner release mode.

I would say keep at it with WAR...it get WAY better when you get to shadowbringers...everything just clicks. Which is why WAR is THE best tank...and I say tank. WAR is so incredibly stout, and my healers can always tell when I don't use bloodwhetting in savage.

Give it another shot, and don't let impatient people deter you. It pays off when people starting looking up to you as a Main Tank and can jump into any content. I got invited to a trap party...that was UCOB...never done an ultimate...but I learned in about a half hour as we made it almost through Nael.
