    and this is not just picking out an oddball, this happens a lot.
    Whats weirder is the OffTank in Garuda refusing to take both sisters at once. "Oh nawww just let the DPS tank it next to the healers so its Downbursting the entire party and potentially wiping us if she lives long enough to Slipstream."

    All they made was make me depressed over how low my damage gets in Titan EM.

    Hey, whatever makes my job easier. Why you think I only play the offtank?

    Now if only people could pick this up on Garuda EM so I only have to deal with Suparna, and not bother with Provoking the Spiny the moment it appears...
