I was recently told that the Minataurs 1111 tonze swing in Fractal wouldn't wipe the group.

He hits for about 18K, only tank lives, and is vocally unhappy with me.

Odd, Ive only ever seen it hit for 2.5k to everyone.

but u can always cast dots without the cleric stance

You can cast any offensive spell w/o cleric stance, not just DoTs...

Pretty sure you're not thinking of the right attack. 1111-tonze Swing is the one where the ground glows purple and you have to click one of those thingies in the room to interrupt it, or else your non-tanks are probably kissing the floor, and probably your tank too unless he's got mitigations.

3 groups in a row for Aurum Vale

1st group, the best actually
we got to 1st boss, the healer, use only medica and stick with 1 of the fruit without moving a feet
and blame the tank get out of healing range, we wipe 5 times before we vote abandon

2nd group the tank never avoid the poison water on the floor, and the healer wont start healing till HP drop below 50%

3rd i save it for the last, tank try to tank without defiance, and we OT him easily and he do not try to take back aggro, the next group of trash, he accidentally pull too many, wipe and he rage quit

I had an extremely weird run in A4 today, as a WHM. We wiped twice, the first time due to DPS not taking care of their assigned dolls, the second time because both tanks died in phase 1. Everyone was eating avoidable damange the whole time, and I had primary threath from the legs, I don't even know what the tanks were doing. I don't think either of them was in their tank stance.

I got kicked after one of them complained - in extremely broken english, so I didn't even know what to answer - about heals or something. They also didn't seem to like me eating some of the orbs in P1, which I usually do because half the tanks in A4 DF can't be bothered to do that.

But yeah, apparently it's the healers' fault when no one does their job properly. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So que up for sunken temple as WAR, I notice everytime I pulled, the mobs ran to the healer I was confused then I realized I had regen on like the whole dungeon.

At the end he was like just click regen dude, well I'm on PS4 so I kindly respond "please don't use regen when I pull trash ty", he replies "I think I know what I'm doing". (Clearly not) lol he was a level 60 WHM by the way lol this is something you learn as a beginner and the tank should not have to click regen unless you used it by accident not cause your lazy.

What is wrong with our community.

Actually, on PS4 you don't really need to click on it with a mouse. If you press the touch pad on your controller a few times it'll cycle through sections of your HUD with a cursor. You just do that until it highlights what buffs you currently have up (regen, protect, stoneskin etc). From there you can move the cursor with the D-pad over to the buff you want gone, then just hit X and the buff will turn off.

With that said, if he's a level 60 healer and just slapping regen on you before and between pulls it sounds like he's being really lazy. Good healers will know to put a regen up on you after you've established aggro and not right before a new set of mobs. I would've let them tank if they were giving you a hard time because they wanted to be lazy lol.

That sounds like a bigger pain in the ass than anything, more so if you have to stop and do that after every pull. =/

Oh yeah, it definitely is. I don't mind doing it now and again but if I have to do it before every pull in the dungeon I'm gonna have something to say to the healer, that or let them tank via regen if they don't listen to me or give a crap. Fortunately I haven't ran into that kind of situation just yet, that or if I have, I've established aggro quickly enough so the healer doesn't die.
