you know what? screw it. All tank abilities have halved potency if not done in the front.
I agree!

Also, the thing that bothers me is people's expectations on Faust. People shouted at me for stepping on Faust's flank. I told them it was for higher potency for Armor Crush. They yelled say to stay behind him at all times. Then, we had a MNK getting yelled at for the same thing. When Faust died after three wipes, we won because me, the DRG, and the MNK went back to doing positionals.

Now, there's another argument there; the tank said if we can't kill Faust without positionals, we suck as DPS. The MNK said, "lets see u tank faust without your cds". We never got to fight Oppressor because the MNK and WAR argued for 20 minutes, then the SCH bailed, followed slowly by everyone else.
