At least to that’s what 80% of general chat was screaming about when they adjusted all of the tanks in prepatch.
Kite meta this, tanking boycott that… And now… All of those same people are crying about tanks pulling too much or too fast in dungeons.
Classic general chat

Well if people actually paid attention, they would have noticed that the changes were mostly going to have an impact on Mythic+, not braindead heroics lol.

It’s normal and heroic. I can run boss to boss and not dip below 90% or use any major cds.
All of these tanks are right back where they belong:
Tanking my dungeons after they tuckered themselves out on the tantrum.

Yea and it’s hilarious to watch the backpedaling of these people who can’t keep up
Don’t worry. I’m sure the first tanks to miss a timer in a 2 will be here telling us that it’s all because of the nerfs.
Some likely won’t run anything before the fairy tales start to be spun in GD. Just let them release and watch.

Oh 100%. This trend will do a 180 in 10 days, it’s going to be fun to watch.

I mean to be fair it stinks on less mobile stuff, and/or specs that want to drop stuff under packs like earthquake, blizzard, frozen orb, etc. I try to turn back around 50-70% of the way through the pull to group it up there rather than at the end if possible.
Your post makes no sense. The current content that tanks can do is the equivalent of Peyton Manning against a bunch of grade schoolers.
Of course tanks can chain pull to the boss. Even after the nerfs, those normal and heroic mobs are just speed bumps. They might as well have shirts that say “minion” on them.

Yep, and yet there’s at least 7 threads worth of people flipping out over it. It’s just another example of how full of hot air most of this community it, always overreacting on emotion behaving like panic-stricken toddlers.
I just wanted to point out how they’ve completely flip-flopped in the past 3 weeks, and as Myzrym suggested, will be doing again in 10 days.

Yep, good ole general discussion. But try and disagree with them and you just get temp banned for three days. I’m not even sure why I post here anymore.

Same man… Same. It’s the most beautifully terrible slow motion train-wreck and I can’t seem to look away for more than a day. I love to hate it and hate to love it.
The difference is that Peyton wouldn’t have preemptively cried about a change that made QBing more difficult.
I would not compare the tanks crying about it immediately to that.
True. This is closer to deflate gate (still not a great comparison because that’s more of a buff) but Tom Brady deflating his balls and then taking on a mess of grade schoolers might be closer.

We are not playing meaningful content yet. You don’t even need tanks for the stuff we’ve done so far. When we get into +10s, we’ll find out how tanks are.
I was thiiiiiis close to putting a “in B4 meaningful content” disclaimer on the thread, but I thought… Nah just let it happen, it only further proves that these cry-babies are in fact cry-babies.
The people that get that far are going to continue to find ways to make it work.
95% of us aren’t going to care either way though. We’ll have tapped out KSM or done our one ten for portals and left you guys to the title chase.
Well it is true that if you never play challenging content, the tuning passes never matter.
Unfortunately to all of the folks up in arms over tank go-go meta, this is challenging content
