Tanks don't want to rely on healers

If you don’t have beta you can watch tanks wiping on twitch. Right now there are tanks being one shot. Damage on average pulls is wild with tank regularly getting hit by trash for 20%-50% of their health in a global all while dps health is still getting hit for massive amounts. If timers are not adjusted we are going to have to kite multiple packs anytime dps CD’s are up. It looks like S1 shadowlands all over again.

Just watched a BDK get globaled on pull with rune weapon up on last boss in SoB. 123 death going into last boss. The dot is hitting dps for 3 million health (so much for no burst damage on dps.) And BDK is one of the better tanks.

Watched a bear get hit for 70% by a single web bolt. With a double pull using beam with incarn up and spamming FR he did 59 million healing and still died. And when renewl was pressed he had to look to see if it was even used. It took 3 keys to make it to the first boss only to find out subjugate hits for 90% of your health and is magic so you end up not having enough defensives to rotate for it.

When it comes to pallies the nerfs are unfun because you can play without any misplays and simply run out of options. Oh also you can’t ignore any mechanic as it will kill you like you were a dps.

We have to remember after 2 months these dungeons are still vastly overtuned. We can expect tuning for this to take several moths at least. Its going to be great for the memes.

As a side note I think the worst part of the changes is that its much harder to tell who messed up. In low content bad tank are going to blame healers and bad healers will blame tanks, and the real fault lies on dps who didn’t kick. Its going to be a spicy couple of weeks.
