Jesse Sky may well have told you that, but I suspect the encounter developers took Shadows' cooldowns into consideration when copy/pasting hard-hitting space dogs all over the new HM FPs. Those encounters are far from impossible for us. We can pop CDs, CC them, kite them, or whatever. My point remains that those gnarly dog packs aren't a general indicator of Shadow tank inferiority vs. Guardians and Vanguards, certainly not of the same severity as Shadows getting 1-shot by Terminate.
Excellent explanation. Thanks!
Yeah, that is perplexing. Hopefully, they come around. And I still think that even if they admit there's a problem, the fix will be that they retune the encounter. I don't think they'll change Shadows' mitigation fundamentals. The TOR devs seem a lot more reluctant to fiddle with class balance and mechanics than the WoW devs are.
Your AV is a Miraluka. How does that even work?
