Honey, I shirked the kids

shirking wont give them enough agro to take a TB, they had to have died from something else. unless you just didn't have your stance on

It could be worse. You could have rescued the MT into your alliance when the first miniboss in Aglaia does its cleave buster. Of course, it would have been an accident, right?
Right?

This is why I don't run a duty with others when I go on a job that I haven't been on for a long while. I run a trust instead (or squadron if under 71), so if Urianger dies repeatedly because I 'accidentally' shirked him during a boss fight *cough* several times *cough*, no harm, no foul.

I was gonna say.. the only thing shirk lets me swap to is another tank. The rest of the party is usually leagues behind me on hate when I tank.

Don't think you can rescue people from other teams in allied raids so unless it's your team's tank, there's not a very good chance of it.

Shirk is only 25% of your current accumulated enmity transferred to your target. That alone won’t allow anybody in your party to steal aggro, let alone getting targeted by a tankbuster because you still have the remaining 75%.

You (as a tank) have to be virtually afk, not having stance up, or that healer was standing in the line of fire to get bustered, which made me think it’s most likely the healer’s fault to begin with.

I dont see how shirk would have done anything. By a minute in a woefully undergeared MT has a million enmity while a BiS healer spamming aoe heals in a full party only has a thousand. Tank stance gives like 100x enmity multiplier.

My shirk macro targets the second in the party list, which in a dungeon is the healer. I've shirked them once before by accident. They probably didn't notice because it was only 25% enmity and I still had the other 75%. The healer must have been producing a lot of enmity for the shirk to be successful.

As a healer main, as long as you explained it had been a while, then everything should have been fine if they didn't have a stick up their butt.

Once I got over the initial "WHY AM IN THE TARGET BAR" panic, I would have laughed my behind off. These little oopsies that show you're there with humans really make the run fun.
