Just a Reply to above because I reached character limit:
I can Kinda agree tank balance so far hasn't been the greatest, it's been passable... but not really good theirs been a lot of issues.
I think for bleeds we could simply make blocks mitigate damage, it's a pretty simple fix In my opinion, I think generally you could slightly buff the regen effect on holy shelltron aswell 400 potency would make it at least contend with Blood Whetting, I don't know if that would be too overpowerd. (maybe reducing the magic burst healing effect alongside that, so pld does get a rotation healing but their self sustain is more focused on their own input not rotation lineup).
Paladins getting a lot of niche tools such as cover and clemency is weird, I don't really mind clemency, it can make the class fun for more casual content when you have no healer or in niche progression situations its just nice, But cover feels really weird and pointless, I guess like clemency it does has its uses but it's really not a great ability in its current state, great at preventing wipes in casual content and even useful in certain situations in higher end duties.
I also kind of want intervention somewhat buffed, Why does its mitigation get reduced compared to holy shelltron? while warrior gets the healing effect and the main mitigation/shield effects go on the target With healing the warrior. Gunbreakers get a small shield bonus if they have a brutal shell (ect. ect.)
Paladin right now isn't weak defensive wise, but a lot of its defensive capability has weird downsides, blocks being janky sometimes Req Healing phase not being able to be controlled on the paladins part, that and Paladin is generally performing worse then Gunbreaker and Dark knight, Struggling to even keep up with warrior. Puts Paladin in a kinda bad spot as of late, not to say its useless but other tanks generally do it a bit better while paladins also have to worry about weird optimizations to it's rotation they have to worry about jank ect. Despite all of that I do think paladin is generally one of the most fun and unique tanks, It could do with adjustments in its defensive kit, without obviously making it super powerful. I do hope tanks in general get a lot of changes, a lot of people are generally unhappy with dark knight's general kit (not being weak but more how it plays). Warrior could use some slight buffs to its rotation. (100% PLD as well).
