    Well the brawler do more dmg than dps so they were forced to nerf it imo (main brawler too)

    A tank was added a year ago, and there's 3 other tanks, with Warrior tank being revamped next. I'm also not sure how adding another healer would get more people to tank either... Also, it makes more sense to have more dps classes since groups need 3+ dps compared to 1 tank and 1~2 healer... HH is the only content recently to require more than 1 tank, but it equally requires more dps at the same time. If you want more people to tank then the current 4 classes need proper attention. Lancer is the only tank to get attention from BHS until Warrior was changed. Now all that's left is Berserker and back to Brawler. Lancer currently holds too many advantages over the other 3, and historically it's not a class people want to tank on. There are people that prefer Warrior/Berserker/Brawler but feel forced to play Lancer or not tank at all.

    Because 8 of 10 players wanna play DPS and not a support class, what gonna call more the attention of new players? a badass DPS or a boring support tank/healer? of course the DPS and new players = money. I see almost everyday at least 1 DPS player who's new in the game and who doesn't even know what crystals to use but he have already a dragon mount and costumes... where did he got all that gold to buy those expensive items when he just reached 65 and doesn't even know what crystals to use or how to play his DPS class? yea from the store with $$$.

    BTW most of those new players aren't around too much, i see them for 1 month at max and then quit or idk, my guess is BHS just want for new people to start TERA, spend all the money they can and if they quit or keep playing after that is irrelevant since they already spent money in the game.

    I doubt we gonna get another tank, BHS can't even balance well the 2 we've now to even think on adding another just to probably kill brawler and lancer together at the end, because we know if a new class is added to the game it has to be OP and kill every old class with the same role or none gonna play it.

    I main a lancer and everytime I run, my priorities are guild and friends first. However, there are times I may feel overwhelmed at times, which is normal because the lack of tanks available always (especially in AV and I'm sure this issue exist on other servers). If guild/friends are busy, I look for lfg. But most times I don't like joining all types of lfg's. Not all tanks want to run every dungeon and maybe not join a certain party also.

    One example: I've had many runs at rmhm where I almost carried people with the healers at last boss. I mean that is okay once in a while but most times I don't want to go through that again with the same party (that moment when I'm the highest DPS in the party). People always ask where are the tanks but never ask themselves that if tanks want to join them. Tanks also have the right to not join a party as well and go with what they desire.

    o/ War tank, soon the revamps as well will come for them, making them exciting and new.

    I play lancer and nobody want me in pt :(. 4 tanks in guild already and LFG always look for DPS/P/M, sometimes for tank, but its usually end as practice run for healer with 2-3 wipes on last boss...

    @Hijikata1 come to TR dude
  • ZoknahalZoknahal ✭✭✭✭✭
    I see this happening lately in TR too. Truth is, we have 4 tanks right now, is just that only 2 of them are viable for most situations. You hardly see anymore Warrior tanks, and i have yet to see a Bezerker tank since the Go Berzek patch. If people who play warrior and bezerker wanted to up their gameplay and learn how to properly use their tank skills, we would see the tank crisis lessened. Unfortunately Warrior and Bezerker desperately need buffs to their tank capacities, Bezerker more than warrior.

    I think, one of the problem with N/A server is Ping problem.

    Brawler is kind of friendly class for mid ping player. But, lancer and warr is ping dependent class. Especially, lancer is very ping dependent.

    Mid/ high lvl ping people will try Lancer and they will find out later that, their lancer can't be as good as one with low ping or Brawler later.

    N/A need another tank class that is less dependent with ping as like Brawler.

    When I play Mystic or Priest, I see some high ping lancer with good blocking, knowing boss mecha and holding agro. But, they can't attack bwt boss attack due to the ping. They barely do 100~200k dps.

    It's all about the meta, read what people see and reproduce, an interesting social construct; a simple extension of monkey see monkey do, to complex levels. Thusly double healer teams live on to this day while the essence of their creations has been patched, and no one would even consider entering a dungeon without a tank. Back to MCHM days, a double healer team meant the second healer was learning and were guild-quasi exclusive, laughable in the LFG scene, whereas no tank runs were common (4 DPS, 1 healer).

    My friend lancer with 160+ ping hes 600-900k dps

    The problem isnt the lack of tanking classes (tho ofc some classes are easier to tank with at the moment), but the lack of players willing to tank. In my oppinion adding more tanking classes (hybrid or not) will not increase the amount of players actively going to main a tank.
    This is also why BHS made a female DPS class, cuz female sells, and dps's stay longer in the game.

    Lack of tanks huh?..... make one.
    Now seriously, the lack of tanks is because there are no tank classes in this game, just dps that acts like a "tank".

    Example:

    A tank must HOLD damage, not deal it. A tank must not be made of TINFOIL. And if you ask me, thats whay I stopped play "tanks"
