There should be no change, and definitively no return to a token system unless classes like a warden would then get twice as many tokens (e.g. an offensive and defensive) while hunters only get their offensive one - or else it would hurt the community much harder than a few tank gear pieces that drop for hunters.
I do not agree with what you are saying.
First: because i tanked with my guardian already moths ago T3 for example "The Harrowing of Morgul" without healer.
Second: because you have a role in an raid (as you said!) so your "job" is to collect the items for this role. My tank warden was never so happy as now, because i got all the defensive agility stuff really very very quick for him and it was my first character which had full BiS gear (except the class raid set - yet)
The current system is unfair if you look at how the gear is distributed in a raid between the agility classes.
Offensive agility:
1. Burglar
2. DPS warden
3. Hunter
Defensive agility:
1. Tank Warden
So defensive agility gear is really soon only here for ash.
The token system would allow to for every offensive class to gear up more quickly as there is no more "useless" defensive gear anymore.
And this count to the class raid set also: what if you got only warden tank gear set pieces, but nobody needs it anymore? a token system would allow to get something useful instead. Same for beorning: what if you do not have one in your raid?
But i don't want to hide it and have to admit, that the current system has some interesting characteristics too for the raid sets, since with the class specific drops one may gear up and play a character in the raid, which otherwise would not.
*LOL*
I tanked with my tank warden t2 in Remmorchant.
One of the T2 Raids did Remmorchant with a Champion DD - So that means that Champion DDs are fine? No, because just because you can do something with a trait line does not mean it is fine. Warden might be possible, it will certainly be much harder than other tank classes as they are massively lacking compared to them.
