To the people talking "Well I can hold hate without marking" Congratulations I don't care if you can hold hate in WP/AK or whatever Endgame Content you're doing I said
That was the first thing I wrote. So I don't care if you know what your doing, I'm not talking about you, So stop making it about you. I'm talking about new Tanks in low level dungeons. And you people wonder why we have shit tanks in endgame because they didn't learn how to play from the start. Having a DPS or healer mark mobs hell no! When I'm on tank I don't want anyone doing my job, I feel like its the tanks responsibility and that is who should be doing it. If you are a DPS/Healer and your tank isn't marking mobs in a LOW LEVEL DUNGEON by all means mark, no one is stopping you. But I can say I've never had to have another player mark my mobs for me nor will I ever. But if I did I would ask if they wanted me to start marking and then do it.
I seen I can keep hate and the DPS can attack whatever they want. No, I've been to level 50 dungeons where me and the tank are attacking the same thing and the other DPS is doing their own thing. Its not making the fight go faster, If anything it makes it take longer. And again I don't care about AK/WP speed runs half the shit is getting AoE'd anyways so outside of marking tonberries really is no need.
Yes DPS should also learn what to attack with or without marking. But you can't go into a low level dungeon and expecting much out of anyone. Almost every low level Dungeon I've done has had at least one new player sometimes two. But I can say that playing as a tank, I don't run into the problem with DPS doing what they want when I mark, As much as others claim they have seen (pretty sure its true cause there are a lot of bad DPS). And playing a DPS I can tell you that I have seen more screw ups when Mobs aren't marked.
So to shorten it up. I'm not talking about you tanks who are level 50 and can Speed Run WP/AK. And doing Endgame Content most everyone should know what they are doing.......
