    Why do you dislike pulling more, can I ask?
    In most case I'm not familiar with the dungeon, and I cannot remember every possible mob path, ambush or patrol of every dungeon.
    I'm also someone who likes to play it slow. Not at a snail pace, but I do not want to be rushed by someone else into doing things I don't feel comfortable with.
    As I said, you can always ask if I could pull more, but you need to respect that the answer can be "No" sometimes.

    I continue to be mystified at how butthurt people get over 5 minutes of their time.
    Admit it, you already wasted 5 minutes on your own accord several times today.

    To be honest it really depends on the party though.
    I've had dungeons where I pulled one mob pack, and the healer was Holy spamming as well, and my health never dropped below 75%.
    At the case I gambled and pulled 2 packs from that point, making the healer heal more, but we didn't had any problems.
    Nobody complaint about the switch and I received three recommendations.
    So I think I did well at that point.

    But when I notice that on a single pack my health plummets to 10% and need to pop every cooldown, I'm definitely not pulling in more.
    No matter how much DPS is complaining.

    I have Adhd, My wife Has 2 computer screens. She always has a Youtube or netflix up. And has to pause it mid battle because I will miss things.

    On that note.

    Depending on how she feels she does both big and small pulls. The time difference is 2-3 mins on the current experts. The difference is Comms
    If she pushes it she is more likely to get comms.

    Personally, I follow the tank. Small or large pulls I adjust to it. I don't open my mouth to complain about it or pull extra ads. Because tanks know what they are capable of. Pushing them to do things out of their comfort zone could lead to bad things happening.

    As a tank I do large pulls myself. I tended to seem like I'm moving too fast (I do sprint sometimes) which makes some players uncomfortable. But if any party member asks me to chill things a bit, I do just that.

    Please consider swapping to DPS or healer.

    It depends though. Some healers who know how to use their spells sometimes let the tank's health drop low before they take off cleric stance to top him/her off. As long as the tank doesn't die and is topped off fast enough there really isn't an issue, although I understand that it could give the tank a bit of a heart attack watching his/her health dwindle down. The problem is sometimes with healers who panic and forget to take off cleric stance before healing, or when the game lags a bit. I personally don't let a tank's health drop below 40% since a lot of things can go wrong, which are out of my control such as lag spikes, etc. - unless it is my husband tanking, then I let him go down to 2000 health or so before topping off (he trusts my healing though).
