    They already did that (no Enmity modifier compensation) when they gutted tank Attack Power from 1.00 STR to .45 STR/VIT (-10%) in 3.2. It didn't hurt any competent (or better) tank too badly, even when maximizing uptime outside of Shield Oath/Grit/Defiance.

    This though? Yeah, they have to increase Enmity modifiers. Even if it's 1.00 STR again, having (at best) some pathetic Tier-V/VI STR materia melds on full-VIT Accessories isn't going to cut it (unless their plan is to force you to be in your turtle stance when main tanking). If that's the case, it's probably time to bid farewell to tanking having any kind of enjoyment whatsoever.

    I wonder how long it'll be before shitters are whining about tank DPS not being able to make atrocious groups just barely pass the (low) DPS check bar set in Duty Finder come June 16th.

    Sorta goes with the above posts, but tanks gotta carry the DPS, nothing you can really do but accept that and roll with it.

    Personally ill say goodbye to tanking comes SB, I don't care about instant queues or to be that one tank people can rely on if a playerbase full of whiny idiots took the fun out of it. RDM looks good anyway.

    My tank's use for SB is carrying my SO and getting paid for instant queues when everyone is leveling SAM and RDM.

    Yep, I can already see 4 SAMs in PoTD, with people getting boned not knowing what to do/how to play it.

    Wait, are tanks going back to 100% strength for attack, while they also remove the ability to run Str accessories?

    That's actually also really annoying for people who use other classes accessories for glamour, like DOL/DOH. But wow, guess they really want to reinforce the reddit/OF meta.

    On the flipside, no more people trying to bloat iLvl with other-classes' accessories to queue something and then equipping super gimp stuff (or not even bothering) after they're inside?

    With the role cross-class stuff in 4.0, 5.0 is good and ready to enforce Job acquisition at lvl30 (and make it permanent) w/o any prerequisites besides class quest progression.

    New grade of materia being added in the expansion. Will have to see what the stat difference is first between the two.
