    If you are faultless, then you didn't pull aggro. If you are faultless you didn't lose aggro. If you are faultless, then there is nothing to fault your companions for.
    As a DPS specialist, my "Dps Creed" is

    1: Always fight to the death, even should others fall.
    2: Defend the Healer at all costs, off tank if necessary.
    3: Kill priority enemies efficiently and quickly despite what marks are present.

    More than once I've pulled a malboro in Arum Vale or an Avis in Snowcloak/Stone Vigil (NM and HM) off the healer when the tank lost it. Better to bruise a tank's ego than lose a healer and guarantee a wipe.
