Dragging last-to-be-killed mob to next pull

[SpookyGhost]

I think this might actually be more of an awareness issue from PLDs, or WARs who don't realize you should be spamming OP with Maim and other buffs up for AOE. You quickly realize, once you start optimizing SRs, that resource management is very delicate and that maximizing TP/MP regen is a very important key to a quick and steady run. Usually, what I do, is if there's a mob left I will start moving to the next pull - but this is only if there is a ranged DPS in the group capable of firing something at it to quickly kill it off. If melee are in the group, I will stand there and help them kill it. There is no sense at all in dragging one nearly dead mob to the next group, that mob should either be dead before you move or dead way before you get to the next pack. You cost yourself AOE from everyone by not letting the outside of combat TP/MP tick, especially if you are doing multiple pulls before the boss.

Also, WHM should be Holy spamming until the pack is dead, WAR should be OP spamming until the pack is dead, etc. etc. The quicker stuff dies the quicker you get to the next stuff and regen TP/MP on the way there to do more Holy/OP/etc.

tl;dr: Don't chain pull, it's slower and doesn't do anyone any good.

Spamming holy takes more MP then you realise, I think. Doing it untill all mobs are dead kind of defeats the point of killing them fast.
