If you don’t like the changes they’re making to your class, go on strike.
For tanks, play dps. If they’re no tanks, they’ll have to reconsider the degree of their changes.

What changes were made?
Ah come on it’s all relative, it’ll be fine.
Some across the board nerfs for tank specs to reduce their solo survivability

I just retired from tanking and switched to DPS. It’s fun now having no pressure from having to learn all the dungeons and mechanics, teach it to others in your groups, or having to face any criticism if you make a mistake while leading the group. Now I can relax as a DPS and just focus on one aspect of the game which is to pew pew.

unnecessary nerfs. Lot’s of them.
Because healers and DPS doesn’t want a tank that can actually survive Sh**.

They should have done smaller adjustments and tweaked it slowly. Throwing a 40% nerf to anything is just insane imo.

nah I want a tank who can survive stuff, because I don’t mind dpsing as a healer.

Well seeing as most of the tanks I saw could solo a boss in current content from a quarter of their health if needed yeah I’d say the tanks needed nerfed. I guess people will just have to cope a little bit.
Thousands of tanks btw, a couple going on strike isn’t going to do much.

And now you can enjoy yelling at the tank for going too slow/fast/wrong pulls/dieing fast because evoker healers want to be dps.
Tank strike is a bit melodramatic; but yea, across the board nerfs instead of actually taking time to tune tanks that are stronger/weaker than others is just lazy.

So lower their damage output on bosses. Fixed it.
Tank strike?
Don’t be soft. Be hard core.
Cancel your subscriptions and show them you mean it.
I did that for 7years. Thanks for your input though warlock who can solo tank almost all content. Let’s give your minion a 50% health nerf and damage output 40%

It’s not about their damage it’s about the survivability tanks need helps to keep them alive heals and tanks need damage to kill bosses etc. the balance was out of wack simple fact,
Only nerfs I saw were to pvp talents.
And then these same players blame the tank for not surviving.

Maybe because they were good tanks on new content? I think we should lower your tank pets health by 50% and their aggro lowered by 200%

If Blizzard is going to nerf the least played role and make the role even less desirable to play by giving all players who play a tank a flat physical damage reduction passive nerf then at least replace that reduction % with a damage increase passive buff. They did nothing to help the tank shortage by incentivizing players to take on the role with the most responsibility, they only made it worse 4 days before mythic+/raid release.

As crazy as this is I have to admit I would love to see it happen, if only to see if it could be done.
