S2 tanks are doing 1/2 to 1/3 the damage of a DPS. Tanks will now be unable to make up for a slacking a DPS or two.
Should be good times.

They should make tanks and healers do literally zero damage and take their interrupts from them.
Only way forward is to pigeon hole DPS into being better.

If this is true, how is continuing doing damage for a little longer more responsibility?

Don’t worry, it’s true. Literally everyone playing PTR right now is saying this. Yes, BM is good, yes Disc will still be S tier.
But the curve for health on mobs is also lower. So it should be fine.

If only it would work like that.
People would be more picky with selections and the people that get carried now would still get carried.
The only way to fix the “skill issue” problem is to bring back proving grounds.
You can get your score carried, but you can’t cheese a proving ground.

So prot paladins are going to fall from grace and crash hard as #1 tanks by a mile?
People will simply account share to get past this.
Will they get banned for it? Yes.
Will they ruin keys before getting banned? Also yes.

How do you account share something like this?
All the old methods of account sharing are pretty much gone. And since its a solo thing, you can’t bring someone in and cheese it.
Get someone you know or pay a stranger to play on your account. Happened with the Mage Tower, would happen with this.

I hope so hehe
While this would be entertaining to watch I don’t see Blizzard attempting this ever again.

Lol!! I did the same thing and was like “where did that come from?” Until I read your comment.
I’m honestly still going to slack off and waste your keys. /shrug
Big difference between this and mage tower.
This is literally minor effort and learning basic mechanics.
I can’t see people risking their accounts for something so trivial.
Me either sadly.
Like how dare we put something in that makes sure you somewhat have a clue before joining challenge mode type content lol.

As long as there are tons of casters and Paladins continue to have nearly endless stops, no.

Imagine DPS actually having to work.

Maybe the answer is to have healers and tanks do less, not have dps do more.
People just wanna have fun…
