I don't agree with adding a +30 to hit bonus to Celestial Mandate since this is rewarding players who are not geared appropriately for the tanking role. If a player has elected to be a block / hp tank with insufficient investment in hit, then that player should be subjected to the full weight and ineffectiveness of said decision. It is inappropriate to reward passive play styles since it reduces overall engagement in the game. You want all players to have high levels of engagement from a business perspective.
