I tanked in shadowlands, I kited during necrotic and massive pulls. what key were you running to need to kite so much?
Meanwhile havoc DH
Yeah, and they’re all the same: removal of “10% less damage taken”. And there was nothing else.
There were no class-specific tank adjustments.

As a PvPer, thank goodness for the tank nerfs.
Imagine complaining about having to do your job as a healer, and not wanting to play a tank because you can’t solo a dungeon.

Also tank shortage happen for many reasons.
How the community treats tanks.
The way tanking works in wow is very iffy. Managing cooldowns for damage, and the slower speed of it makes many people not enjoy it. (mind you this is all coming from my husband who loves fury warrior because how fast it feels. Tanking felt slow.)
The aggro system, is not fun to manage.
I have no idea, if this is true this is just second hand info, but tanking just does not seem rewarding. DPS it feels good to do high numbers, and interrupts. Tanking i guess would only feel good if it is this op that can pull a whole dungeon with ease.
BM? You serious? BM wasn’t even allowed to be played until pre-patch.
Oh is that just how they are losing the 10%?
Seems like it’s how Blizzard now treats tanks too.

I’ll acquiesce to surv being powerful in S4 but huh?
Will 10 percent make or break tanks though? maybe healers will stop being bored, they seem to act like they have nothing to do.

just curious, why did you jump to +25 keys instead of the range the VAST MAJORITY of people play in? Blizz doesn’t care at all about class balance in the absolute top keys. They don’t balance for it. A 1% difference in balance will make those players reroll so why do you base your argument on it?

That doesn’t mean it will be engaging enough to continue tanking.

Nerfing the least played role doesn’t help anything only makes it worse. I am done tho I am going to go delete this tank character now.

I don’t recall any healers really complaining about tanks being (mostly) independent.
Healers with “nothing to do” are typically bad healers.
BDk was broken in every key level, so was survival hunter and destro lock. These were just examples. Pugging was VERY bad in s3/s4 if you weren’t playing meta specs even in lower keys (literally hundreds of LFG posts only wanting BDK, lock, hpriest, SV hunter) it was a massively talked about issue all of S3 and S4

Honestly tanks probably need more of a nerf I doubt 10% will keep them from pull large packs still. Also probably need more focus on triage healing or a move towards that. The nerfs to self healing for dps is a good thing as well.
The game needs to feel challenging and scary to pull larger packs in Mythic and in keys for sure.
Pugs will be pugs. 
And Blood DK would still be much better at lower key levels, too. It’s not even close to a 1% difference that season; Blood was drastically better than the others.
