I joined the game during stormblood 4.1 and drk was my favorite tank in that xpac of the three available. When shb dropped, I immediately disagreed with the direction of drk, but all my friends and a drk main among them insisted it was such an improvement. I honestly still don't see it, but unlike in shb, I can kind of enjoy drk again. But that really depends on who my healer is.

Ever since shb, gnb is my tank of choice, and is apparently going to be my main now since sam is now still junk from 6.1

Not a fan of how drk was made into a worse version of war upon its rework, and I don't like how the potencies of sam were shifted away from its main mechanic. The potency shifts make it seem more like they want it to be another version of monk as a consistent gcd loop instead of high burst spikes like it always was generally.
