So, yeah, if you're remembering I3, there were some things that needed fixing. But what was done to tanks with the combination of I5 and ED, including aggro nerf, damage nerf, defense nerf and damres nerf, has swung the pendulum MUCH too far the other way.

They dont get what were trying to say. Your wasting your time. Tanks are balanced they are right.

I will gladly pvp your tank anytime Mistress. What server are you on? It's not Justice I am assuming cause I have never seen you in Sirens or Warburg.

Now when I said tanks get owned in PVP does that mean every single tank? NO, there are a few tanks out there that can hold their own. But as a whole they are pretty gimped. Ever try a Fire tank in PVP? You don't even have KB protection unless you get acrobatics, which means you have to take 3 total powers from leaping.

To the "regen" tank - because your ONE type of tank that takes aid self etc etc is able to do missions on invincible and take the agro from "17 +3 mobs" doesnt mean ALL tanks can do it. In FACT most tanks can't do it.

You said I need to maybe "adjust my play style" which to me means I should now be expected to buy aid self? My fire tank already has a self heal and consume. He just can't tank the dmg at all. 2 Shields with a total of 6 dmg resists between them just can't cut it in PVP or PVE. Thats a FACT.

If in fact you are correct Sonburst and everyone else is wrong, why then are there SO FEW tanks around. Why are tanks getting totally owned in PVP by everything.

The fact is with the current slotting allowances for tanks they are about 50% of what they used to be. I'm not saying that they weren't overpowered, they were, but the trend in this game is to nerf ATs into oblivion. They could have cut their abilites by 25% or so NOT 50%.

You are just wasting those 3 slots 6 slotting stamina.

And anyone that thinks having 3 slot stamina and the global end bonus is the same as pre-ED 6 slot stamina is crazy.

I have a 50 fire/en tank. He can't even run his toggles and attack with his whole attack chain without running out of end now. Nor can he tank any damage whatsoever because all of his shields have only 3 dmg resists in them. ED totally ruined tanks and any def AT's in my opinion.
