Wow lol, couldn't be more wrong, unless you're playing a different game. I feel very sorry for the tanks that you get. Yes there will be bad tanks and I've seen a few but if you're a DPS and not slowing down a little when pulling hate you deserve to be killed to be honest.Quote:

As seen in AK with a tank and his white toy sword battling against a Garuda's Van-BLM. :) *shrugs* I just heal the BLM instead. Not to bash AK newbies, I have beaten that dungeon with 2 newbies before and no deaths. -

Speaking as a DPS.
It is up to the DPS to manage their own Hate. ARR has one of the best aggro management systems in an MMO, it's easy.
Good DPSing requires patience, it's not just pew pew pew. Watch your hate levels, and manage them wisely. I just switch to the next target, or match the tanks targetting, that way I'm safe, if it goes too high? Boom, Quelling Strikes.
If you're a DPS and you pull the tanks hate, that's your own fault and you pay the consequence.
----------------------------------
tl;dr
The king and queen of damage are the DDs who know how to keep the damage up and the hate down.
