Strength Tanks and You.

But this is on the same level as those ''Did you die'' healers....the ones who would rather DPS then heal. So our community suffers from ''different playstyle'' healers as well. I hate having to POP Rampart..Then a Sentinel just because my Astro thought it would be a good idea to DPS or the SCH is letting Eos take the wheel in AF2 ....
So this goes both ways ... I never bash the full community of healers, but those imbeciles know who they are

So, you'd rather NOT use your abilities that you have, like you should be, so that a Healer who want to DPS, like they should be, can use the abilities they have that they DO want to use? Does not compute.

If you don't understand why popping two major cool downs at the same time in a long duration fight with multiple rounds of combat is a bad idea, don't tell what tanks should or shouldn't be doing. Hell, if you don't understand why it's a bad idea, I don't want you healing either.

Yes God forbid the 13K HP tank getting hit with 8K tank busters or pulling 3 pulls in a dungeon use not one but TWO cooldowns simultaneously. That'd be heresy!

You think you're being sarcastic but you just keep showing that you either fail at reading comprehesion or blinded by your vendetta and didn't bother to read the post you're replying to.

I would use Foresight and Awareness together, but never rampart and sentinel. The only time in 2.x when tanks had to stack two cooldowns was taking a 6-hit Akh morn to the face without relying on HG...

And if a 13k HP tank gets hit by a 8k tank buster he was simply lazy, bad, or both. 8k means he did not bother mitigating anything all. If he can't tell when a tank buster is coming, he shouldn't be using STR gear in first place. Btw, I don't recall anything in HW hitting more than 8k apart from blinding blade.
