If that were the case you would never be tanking because then it would be impossible for you to hold threat against him. In a two-tank fight, one tank will always be in the position where they are having to manage their threat like everyone else.
    What? That's literally what tank stances are for.
    If a tank is doing 200 dps (which ive seen some do in alex floor 4) they deserve to be shit on, especially in this case where you can easily overgear content by 20ilvls

    I know what tank stances are for. But if you're helping to create a situation where your group "wipes multiple times" because you refuse to compensate for the current makeup of your team, whose fault is that? If one tank is generating as much threat as they possibly can, and yet the other keeps ripping it off despite having the option of reigning themselves in, then the fault lies with the latter. The former can not do anything about the situation once they're in the dungeon with you - there's no "new gear on demand" option for him to have air dropped in. It's up to the latter to ease up on the gas. Is it annoying? Sure. But it sure beats causing multiple wipes and wrecking everyone's mood because you have epeen issues.

    Hence the suggestion for "teamwork".
