Its been quite the opposite for me. The majority of the runs I have had after leveling 7 battle jobs to 60 with mnk being a close 8 (level 58) I have seen more than enough to know how people are viewing tanks. I mostly get tanks that pull everything in dps stance then hope that the healer can keep up. The whole run ends up being a tug of war between the tank and healer.

It's ridiculous.... and at best makes the runs last longer bc of the wipes.... Just yesterday I had a run in the Aery (lvl 55) dungeon that lasted 50 mins bc of this tug of war between tank and healers and it wasn't bc of the bosses... this was all bc the tank wanted to keep pulling 2 pulls of mobs while in dps mode... the healer just couldn't keep the poor bastard alive.

Tbh theres really no point to use OT stance in dungeons when pulling big packs, WAR can propably pop in and out of defiance to get few decimates to speed things up but thats it. I guess majority thinks now that you need to be in OT stance 24/7 no matter what content you do...

Now if you do dungeons with pre-made then you can do whatever you want, but in DF its better to play safe as you dont know what kind of team-members you get in there.
