    i am not mass pull tank

    i don't do mass pull for one because i miss detail with my adhd. two i away seem mass pull tanking as a tanking style that you don't know if things can gone wrong at. if you pull entire amount a mobs and you wipe group then you stick small pulleds. slow and stead win the dungeon.

    Fast and steady can also win the dungeon.

    Speedruns are the norm in DF because as long as people aren't distracted nothing should go wrong, but if you don't want to or can't do a speed run (like in your case for adhd) just mention it at the start of the party so people know the dungeon won't be run at the "normal" pace.

    Unfortunately, with how powerful everyone is in lv 50/60 dungeons, if you're not mass pulling you're purposely wasting time.

    A healer would sooner pull themselves and stack heals on themselves than deal with a short pulling tank. It's simply the nature of this game in the layer dungeons, enjoy short pulls in the levels dungeons though.

    if a tank wants baby pulls, ill never pull other mobs as a dps.

    but at the same time, i'm not gonna be happy...especially if we all are over powered (i.e., most of us being 250-255 in GL HM and a tank pulls three mobs at a time? lol. no.)

    I'm sorry that it is frustrating for you to deal with mass pulls with your ADHD. I also find it frustrating when tanks pull slowly with my powerful AoE, it also screws up the timing of aetherflow and makes DPSing more difficult. It's also just a lot less fun.

    What kind of tank are you? Just hit flash as you pass mobs during the pull and hit your AoE threat generator several times to establish agro, and use a CD. There are is a handy list of enemies with a green/orange/red icon next to them - red means they are hitting you. Green/orange means they are hitting someone else. You can use that to determine which mobs you need to gain threat back (if just 1, you can use provoke/single target combo).

    Look at her LS and she only has level 51 WAR, only as her tank.
    So yeah, actually, tell people you're new to the dungeon and wanna do small mobs at first so you can get use to the dungeon I guess.
    When I did DV I was scared to do big pulls but after a run or two I Pulled a lot. Some people can understand.
    But that's me because I'm stressed/scared to play tank.

    I always pull one pack per time.
    If I see a DPS pull more on their own, they will also be tanking that pack on their own.
    If my healer get's aggro because of it, you're in a lot of trouble, cause I will save my healer, but I sure as hell will boot you from my party.

    If you want me to pull more, you can ask, nicely.
    And if the healer is okay with it then I will pull faster or larger groups.
    But speedruns?
    Not on my watch.

    In all fairness, I'd rather tank a pack on my own than have you pull only 1 pack. I usually tank 50% of the mobs anyway.

    That said, I've never pulled more on a tank. I'd just be grudgingly upset about it and have a ruined experience.

    Why do you dislike pulling more, can I ask?
