Respect the pull timer.

Considering the game devs are working to make the game more solo friendly, I don't think the normal MMO mindset is the same here.
Also some people don't have spare money to put on a keyboard (before someone says it's a sub game, there's still the free trial).

This mindset applies exactly the same, since not all elements of the game are solo friendly. Again, I get the financial part, but I still think that a keyboard is a must.

Also, if you can't do your full opener, do you just insta pull and ignore your whole opener then? if you want the opener you would be waiting anyways.

If my rotation being off doesn't matter, it doesn't matter that the tank's rotation is off. They can suck it up and gap close to the already pulled boss. Or learn to set the pull timer correctly.

Oh yeah for the record I do agree that keyboards are better for communication. This was just an example why pull timers can be used as a means of communication for those without one.

Fair enough.

Get over yourself.

Don't worry about me, I didn't expect casuals to understand my tendency to override timers.

Not everyone who plays is here to be social. Don’t need a keyboard to run dungeons. It’s a game first with social elements second

I do a 10 second pull timer as a courtesy to my group, nothing more. If someone pulls before it's up, I tomahawk and move on with life.

Okay, but it's still an MMO. I'd still recommend a keyboard. Other players can and probably will try to communicate with them at some point for some reason or another. This could lead to a lot of tension or potentially being removed from a party if they don't have a way to respond.
