Shaman tanks, warlock tanks, rogue tanks, mage healers that are slightly undertunrned could be a solution for the healer/tank population.

If I play a class that can’t be anything but DPS (such as rogue, lock, mage), I will have to wait for queues for ages, but if I can afford to go tank, and play it instead my dps role in order to play the game and allow a key to be played, it’s a win win win. Even more if the spec is funny enough as in SoD.

During Vanilla Shaman could build their aggro, and tank 5 people dungeons.
Then Blibli took away this fun part.

During Burning Crusade Warlocks had a demon form to tank.
Then Blibli took away this fun part. And some time later DH arrived with their demon form.

During Vanilla, tanks had to chose between Main Tank and Off Tank in raids. Each tank had specific roles.
Then Blibli took away this fun part.
Except for few boss like Diurna, where each tank have a specific and funny role. Since then, like 15~18 years, tanks are both “Main” tanks, and both have the same role, and both have to follow the same pattern : Swith The Aggro On X or Y Stacks…

Blibli destroyed tank gameplay years ago, and tanks are not funny anymore.
No wonder why there is less and less tanks.
More tanks will not change anything - although shaman tanks would be great.
Just improve tactics and think about tanks, create interesting strats for all players, DPS and Tanks and Heals, and not just “Don’t Forget To Switch Aggro !”

Could be, or could also not .

There is now twice as much tanks as we had in classic ( or tbc cuz classic didnt realy work well) and the situation with tanks is pretty much the same.

Yes, people will play class X with tank spec, especialy at begining, to try out new stuff but that will be just smat portion . Mostly people already playing tanks will be playing new tank and that changes nothing in overal tank numbers, just like DH as new hero class with tank spec didnt change a thing in that regard .

Playing tank ( or any role realy) is first and foremost a role preference stuff, not a class options.

And thats not my opinion only, iir Ion ( or someone else perhaps) said that is the reason why evoker doesnt have a tank spec, because game need more tank players, not more tank specs .
