That Which He Does Not Play

[ronibosch]

WAR is far from the best tank. It excels at a single thing: self-sustain. Its damage blows compared to DRK and GNB, and even PLD seems to be beating it in this regard after the last round of changes. Even its mitigation isn't stellar, though I'll grant it does mitigate better, ironically, than PLD.

I'm genuinely curious, as someone still learning about the strengths and weaknesses of each tank job: which one would you consider the "best"? Is it based off of mitigation, dps, or both? Does it depend on the type of content it is being used in?

I'd say DRK has awesome dps, but it's a bit too squishy for my taste in comparison to the others. I could see GNB being the winner, though.
