Guard, Beo, Cap self heals currently enough to tank T5 3 mans without support heals. The same tanks need heals for 6 mans. I get what your saying, but you’re already conceding to be inferior tanks than any of those by saying we should need support heals (always). At 75/85 we could outheal most boss fights BECAUSE of the magnitude of defensive buffs that were coupled into our healing gambit lines IN ADDITION to the magnitude of our heals and morale taps. Compounding that, most of those fights were not single target fights but allowed weak add pulls to draw a lot of morale taps. The fights I struggled tanking the most were single target bosses. If that set was our strong suit, and we fit back into that niche then I think we could be fine in certain raid bosses and most 3/6 man content. Tanking at that stage of the game was different because guards didn’t have the massive self heals they do now, and it was a case of which tank was better suited for which fight between the two. I get what your saying and I don’t wholly disagree, but to concede to be the 3/4/5th option is already losing. They should rightfully be the 1st/2nd/3rd choice based on the style oF instance/boss fight.
IMO they should just take away selfhealing from all tanking lines...And instead of out hots we should get a lot of inc healing. This could compensate our medium armour and our <mits to a certain point
Or they could just leave those pathetic HOTS and still give us a lot of inc healing in blue line ^^... No matter what they are going to do...I don't like it but..Without better panics we will never be equal...
Nevertheless they should start with basic things:
- Steadfast needs a cd compareable to TtT and also needs a trait to reduce the cd a bit
- First Aid also needs a trait to remove more than 1 wound etc
- Never Surrender as the worst "panic" in the game probably needs either a buff or at least a lesser CD..like..even 1 min would not be OP compared to all those guard panics
- Every stats in the trait trees or on our weapons need to be scaled up to our level
