    Good, now the good tanks will be separated from the bad. It was extremely boring to be a tank and go up and just hold block while casting magicka abilities.

    Now tanking requires actual thought.
    too bad there are no tanks left except for the casual ones who wont be able to keep up with this, silly to make pvp affect an issue that wasnt there in pve

    Why does there need to be a separation? Most tanks would tank offense that tanking currently requires no thought since this is obviously an over exaggeration meant to incite strife on the forums. Having tested it on PTS it is NOW boring since it's only a micro management game for stamina and nothing else. It's still taunt everything, hold block, stamina depletes, cast heals and damage mitigation, drop block, heavy attack until full stamina and hold block again. Now the focus is only on stamina gain and management instead of doing other fun things like healing or debuffing or stunning or ccing or anything that is more interesting then just spamming heavy attacks.
    Perfect for all the thoughtless tanks, guess you're still going to bored. Recommend you find something else to entertain you.

    why u remake my topic

    Sorry @nifty2g but i had to start this topic up in PTS feedback, because the old one was in general discussion and we are now providing feedback about PTS (pretty self explainatory). And the old topic became some kind of quote war between "forum politicians"

    I stopped reading after the attempted sarcasm.

    It's a good change for the game.

    Care to scroll up to the OP? If you think tanking right now is boring:

    1st you are not a tank
    2nd you spent last 50 runs with almost same people with perfect top notch DPS and perfect heals, doing dungeons like a robot and your chat was dominated with DPS bragging how much they hit on bosses. Try to take up a whole group of pug. People who never run dungeons. Take a lvl45 for his first pledge of VR1 for his first veteran pledge. Then see how tanking is boring.
