Guards have been designed for and what their niche is. So why do they think they need OT tools. Or why do they think they should excel in heroic where survivability is hardly an issue?
The same reason shadowknights think they need MT tools. Any fighter should be able to fullfill the job of MT, OT, or emergancy snap tank, with varying degrees of effectiveness. If guards are the best suited fighter for main tanking raids, they should be the least effective OT... but they should be able to do it somewhat effectively. Which they can for the most part, it's just fights like the overking and avatars that have continuous waves of adds where they are all but useless. Again, guards need a small boost to AoE threat.
I don't believe guards should excel in heroic content. They should be able to get the job done without having to have the best obtainable gear from heroic content and a perfect group setup, but leave the "excelling in heroic content" to crusaders and zerkers.
Regardless of all this crap no dev is going to bother to read, the bottom line is shadowknight is the best fighter for soloing, pvp, and anything having to do with tanking, except main tanking progression raid mobs... and even that can be debated. I'm sure in Brownie's fantasy island all is well and balanced, but in the real world we call this overpowered.
Gratz on once again proving you are a fool.
