And yet, it has no effect on "getting into tanking" in any other place in the entire game.

There is no barrier to entry in tanking caused by my suggestion.

It just makes ultimates harder, a thing that SHOULD be the hardest possible thing in the game.

If it can be made harder, it should be, such is the nature of the task.

So no, don't try to call me out for a suggestion as if it would make all tanks tasks everywhere in the game harder.

By the time you are at ultimates, you are not "getting into tanking", that's a horrible way to represent things. You are a brave and mighty hero, one that simply has to keep the OLD set, and get the new set, and know when to swap between them. As you can't get two perfect sets. Heck, they might even bring back the PVP sets, and let you get slightly different stats of the same ilvl.
