i did so many SR on tank, healer, blm, etc...
but when i enter , lately usually as tank, i always look at the setup, the gear etc. Many ppl do want Speedruns even though their jobs don't really fit and the gear also isn't good enough to do a proper speedrun.
So you end up being slower pushing a SR which is stupid.

So i always ask the people if they want a SR or if they wanna take it slow. The difference isnt that huge and if i really want to grind tomes i get people for a speedrun and do it with them multiple times in a row.

But i agree with many people here, take your time, and don't let them annoy you. I lvled my tanks last, cause ive seen how badly people treat them (no kidding). Its a shame but thats the way it is.


Lately on Garuda X (never MT it just OT) we waited for hrs in partyfinder. Didnt find a tank, so i said, ok ill do it, but im no pro. Things didnt go smooth (which wasnt all my fault as well). But 2 people left after 3 attempts (perhaps 10 min all together) because they wanted to win...

They rather wait another 2 hours to get a tank that "maybe" a pro, then get it done with a guy that is new to tanking X and in the end the community ends up with another tank that is able to do it. If people continue to treat tanks like they actually do, i'm not surprised at all, why tanks just won't join random groups anymore. Sad but true.
