As a tank alt, I always say play the best you can as BLM because we hate seeing slow DPS, BLMs that don't AoE, and "Ice Mages". More importantly it will teach them that they can't rely on 'weak' hate on mobs they don't want to hit. A good tank will learn to split their combo between mobs to keep their aggro high enough so AoEs don't rip. Plus others won't be forgiving when they get to expert roulette level if they don't know how to get good with aggro on a big pull, they will suffer. The earlier they learn, the easier it gets.

I remember hearing from someone a DRK dying to just the first 3 hits from the first mob in Dusk Vigil, they had some level 15 right sides and I think just a level 48 weapon and paltry left-sides. Yet they were a level 60 SCH main. You would think they know how gear progression is being a healer.

I agree with Selli that the healer should have been kicked from the first death, because the carrying needs to stop somewhere. To add to herpoint there is even a vendor in the AST guild that sells weapons.
