    1. fun
    2. challenging
    3. in case of a wipe you retry D:

    But I do agree that before mass pulling tank should make sure that the party (esp. the healer) are ready for it. Though really, all roulettes are so easy that even by just looking at gear he can decide for himself, but just for the sake of being polite...

    Pretty much this. Ask first. Your healer could be having a crap day and not feel up to it.

    I'm trying to (slowly) learn the art of tank-fu, first with warrior (STEEEEEEEL CYYYYYCLONE!) and now with paladin. Coming from BLM which only really has two cool downs to think about (Quelling strikes and Raging strikes), it's a bit of a learning curve and even though I know my healer, I won't pull more than two packs of mobs. Not because I think she can't handle it, but because I know I can't.
