I thought the idea was to reduce tankiness. however:
Ironblood: This set now grants a unique 30% damage reduction, rather than Major Protection.
How is this going to help with that? Especially given that:
Pirate Skeleton: [...] This set now applies Minor Defile to you, rather than Major Defile.
Those are not the only changes contradicting the state goal of reducing tankiness. For example:
Steadfast Hero: Increased the duration of Major Protection granted on proc to 10 seconds, up from 5. Reduced the cooldown to 12 seconds, down from 18.
That's 83% possible uptime on Major Protection. And some classes, like wardens, get it more or less passively without even having to make a conscious decision to proc it.
What's up with that?

Nevermind, I missed the changes to the Major-Minor (De)Buff system.

Revokus✭✭✭✭✭Ironblood already snares the user by 50% It’s a ZOS kiss curse. They have already reduced tankiness enough with Major\Minor nerfs. Stop trying to encourage the end of solo play.

Atherakhia✭✭✭✭Ironblood was changed because Major Protection was nerfed. There are several other sets that provide Major Protection near permanently so Ironblood needed to be changed to be unique. Otherwise why wear it over the other options.1
