Looks like this is something they're rethinking as a whole, which they admit is a jarring change for longtime players. The second sentence of the post: "This set of changes reflects an experiment in the latest Alpha build." - Remember they like to throw pretty crazy stuff at Alpha builds that never make it to beta, let alone live.

I'm eager to see what this means for tanks specifically because I'm a bear tank at heart.

Also if this stops fire mages from being able to nuke me out of middair I'm all for it.
yes but it still scares me that, like 5 years too late, they recognized that at some point things went out of control with oneshot macros and the longer they think about it the more they realize how stupid it actually is to have a 255 character oneshot macro (no shit in mop mine was at 250 which included a symbiosis ability)
ofc it gives in turn multiboxers more surviveability but at some point we also have to start killing stuff and with plenty of aoe cc that wont be easy then especially when you face >5 opponents
