I was there, all jobs were fine in ARR all the way to SB. PLD wasn't as good as WAR through most of it but by no means was it a bad tank; same with Monk. The focus should be on making the cake have some flavor again, right now the menu has no flavor, everything you order (FFXIV jobs) from that menu is all the same flavor with slight sprinkles and coloring.

Any artist worth his salt would tell you that every art piece you make should be different from the last one. Square enix has buried this basic concept in a graveyard somewhere.
