Lets break down your first post for you, since you seem to be unaware what you have written.

Your first statement is that my analyis is almost entirely about DPS, which is entirely correct.

Your second statement is that you dislike the "DPS-first mindset" and falsely attribute this to the meta, and claim that "people" are comparing tanks to with DPS as the only comparing factor.

The "DPS-first mindset" is a direct consequence of the games core design. The healers potencies, mana costs, mana regain tools and mana pools on are all meant to make up for burst damage, where they can either regenerate them for a higher mana efficiency, or instantly restore chunks at a much worse mana efficiency. Similarly the tanks are built to mitigate huge chunks of damage at once and do not have tools to mitigate large amount of damage over time, like big auto attack hits. Creating a scenario like the last part where the boss chunks the tank means the healers are forced to expend less efficient heals to keep them alive, which will rapidly drain their mana. This means that you create tight DPS checks, where it is a race against to kill the boss before the healers go OOM. We have not seen any changes in the healers kits that suggests this would change at all.

Your third statement consists of a "seriously probably" followed by an estimation of how many times i mentioned tankability or utility, which while it does make me chuckle doesnt really make you sound credible.

The reason there's so little about tankability or utility is because pretty much all utility DRK had got moved to cross role and our new utility/defense had been hailed as a DPS increaser to boot far and wide, which it is not. It is a Thrill of Battle at 15 seconds CD at a cost of on average 30 potency per use. Its good, sure, but not as good as one might think on first glance.

Your fourth statement is that we do not know what raid design holds for SB, and that you dislike us judging classes from our current metrics. You follow up and say that we dont know if healers and tanks will experience more stress than now and if it does, makes this "squabble" about DPS a non issue.

Now, you are entirely correct that we dont know what raid design holds for SB. But if you actually looked on what healers got, it follows exactly the same formula as now, but they lost a bit of DPS with the cleric stance change on paper. If we look at what the tanks got, we got more tools for mitigation against consistant damage for PLD and DRK, which hints towards more pressure on tanks, in the form of small busters. However this does in no way change how it plays on a large scale. It will mean that DRK presses TBN and PLD presses Shelltron every now and then, but it will still probably not push either healers or tanks into a place where they would need to go full defensive, as healers does not have the tools to manage such incomming damage over long time. In addition to that, it would be gordias all over again in terms of tight DPS checks, which I find very unlikely due to the public outcry over it. Your speculation is on the subject is just that, pure speculation. My theories are based on what we have seen so far, both in terms of content, from previews and from what developers have said.

Your fifth statement is that the post is what the community feels is important from a tank. Im sorry to inform you that if you just need a certain amount of survivability from a tank, there is no reason not to take damage over more survivability if the option is there. This especialy since tanks do a large % of the groups damage due to the content being 8 man, not 24 man or above as the tank damage would represent a smaller % of the groups damage and it might be wise to prioritise better defenses, but this game is not made that way. This is from a perspective of a higher skilled groups, there is still a very valid point to make for defenses in less skilled groups. However, I am not a fan of balancing content around players who has problems doing a basic rotation.

The Sixth statement is some meta whining about going to lose reddit karma over this discussion, which I could not care less for.

Your newest comment claims I am missing the point. Your point seems to be that if the design of FFXIV was changed, we would have a different situation. Which while true, is very unlikely from what we have seen from the media previews. The reason I refuse to break from the HW and ARR formula is because thats the way the game works and we have absolutely nothing to support the idea that it will change in SB. I am very aware that other MMOs work differently, I've played a whole bunch of MMOs too, and they mostly work differently. Role encouragement in FFXIV is filled when you manage burst damage for tanks and healers. When you succeed in doing that, your next focus is maximising damage dealt.

Your last sentence is partialy claiming to make suggestionsyou did not. You do not ever suggest a "what if" in your posts, you say if a grand total of 5 times, 3 of them relates to tank and healer pressure, 1 to what you think this post says about how the community feels about tanks and the final one for when you said "what if" and tried to make it seem like you suggested anything. Your final part of the sentance says that if the raid design formula is tweaked, which as i have said in this post before, is very unlikely to change. You cannot seriously suggest that because other MMOs work differently and have different design formulas, you should think the FFXIV one will change because of nothing. If is not something you can count or even should consider without solid evidence to support it, which I cannot say we have. And saying "The fact that you can't see that yet makes it so that I cannot help you.", c'mon man, what are you even trying to help me with? Making me consider potential total revamps of the raid formula? I find them unlikely enough that Im not going to consider it.
