    Am I missing the irony, or are you missing the point?

    Did SE not build tanks to be the best suited to pulling?

    Did they not build tanks to go first into mobs?

    I see them doing that all the time, when dps do it they get fussed at, laughed at if they die, or things get crazy for a bit.

    SE implied for tanks to be the rightful tiebreakers by giving them the best ability to do so. Overall community approval of tanks pulling vs disapproval of DPS pulling reinforces that, as does the fact that tanks are best built to pull.

    You can keep calling it ironic and ignoring these points, plus the fact that I've said I am the same way as a DPS (i.e. I leave it up to the tank to decide what to do), and the fact that I've said I do clears if people act like decent human beings or outnumber me if you want though, but it's becoming like a broken record now.

    Yes, you are clearly missing the irony. You say this one dps acted entitled, while adding that SE implied that the tank is the entitled party member.

    You're clearly missing the point, and not responding to my points.

    SE gave me (tanks in general) the tools to do pulls the most effectively and to go first into mobs, and therefore the preference that we make the call in a tie. DPS and healers doing it ends badly. When he went ahead with the healer to try without me, they died horrible deaths.

    And again, when treated like a human being or outnumbered, I give people what they want. When I'm a dps, I let the tank make the call. So I'm entitled eh?

    I rest my case.

    Please, do continue to twist my words though.
