@Wrobel , do you see anyone in here wanting a nerf to bracing?
@Personofsecrets - The interesting thing for me is that it is seeming that Medium Armor + Shuffle/Mirage + Dodging will generally be better than blocking in most circumstances, apart from PvE scenarios where you need to tank, or in the moments you need to block a meteor or RD in pvp. I'm actually personally thinking some of the new trait stones on Medium will be better for tanking. I haven't sat down and mucked with the mathematics on it, and honestly I don't have the access or time to really do it right now, but is my cursory assessment here wrong?

I was thinking that for stam tanks. Not sure about magicka tanks tho. Light just may not have the resist for it.

I love tanking, I tank with all four classes but I really wish there was a dual speccing in the game. As a tank I sacrifice a lot of damage in order to help protect my group. However, when I have the need to run around doing solo stuff, like new DLC, I switch my gear/attributes/CP around so I can be more effective in these parts. It gets tiring switching out all the time (and in-game gold) so that I can do solo stuff.

Calling all Tanks!
The Dungeon and Gameplay teams would love to get some feedback from all of you damage sponge, block mastering, mitigation kings out there. This thread is going to mainly cover PvE encounters specifically in group dungeons or Trials. If you like to play a tank in ESO and want to have your voice heard, or you don't and want us to know why, please answer the following questions. Please make sure you mention if you primarily play on console or PC.
1. What do you like best about tanking in ESO?
2. What do you like least about tanking in ESO?
3. What is your favorite encounter to tank?
4. What is your least favorite encounter to tank?
5. Of the tools you have for tanking, which is your favorite?
6. Of the tools you have for tanking, which would you like to see improved the most?
Thanks a lot for your feedback. We look forward to hearing what you have to say!
6. Please fix Ebon buff for S&B when we swap bars so our group members don't drop 1k health. I don't know if it's intended to be like so, but if it's not PLEASE FIX, I've had Ebon S&B back when the shields where no where to be found. I don't know if I should delete them etc, If this problem could get resolved our set ups will be way more flexible. I have so many sets etc for my tank, but when I always start to theory craft in some way or the other when Ebon pops up, it becomes a problem.
Don't get me wrong I have tanked many content with different set ups, not needing the S&B, but it would be amazing to have the feature available to us.
Also, in champion points, In heavy armor focus, I keep on having disagreements with other tanks if it's worth putting points in. In my POV I believe it is worth to have around 20 inside now with the new 600Cap. But it would make more sense if we get more out of each Champion Point. I wouldn't mention this TBH, since I will still have my 20 in there no matter what
Other then these 2 above Everything else is amazing !!! Love tanking. It is a skillful role, many players underestimate, love it when a DD swaps to tank char and gets 1 shoted. It's just totally amusing to see such an over egoistic player get rekt!

This is from the Homestead patch notes.Fixed an issue with the various aura/ball sets (Ebony Armory, Hircine’s Veneer, Worm’s Raiment, and Sanctuary) where they were not applying their bonuses correctly if you weapon swapped while using weapons of those sets.
