What's with all these people single-targetting during big pulls in dungeons?

Or maybe they didn't want big pulls. Lots of dps won't complain when tanks pull 10 mobs but still kill one at a time. This is the same conversation, just phrased different.

Logical, but DPS players have their responsibilities of burning down mobs ASAP as much as Healers keeping everyone topped off and Tanks drawing aggro away from the party, whether they like it or not.

Because for some jobs their AoE rotation is incredibly boring especially not at max level.

Some people, including Tanks & Healers, don't like big pulls as well. However, dungeon designs force them to encounter such situations, like the big pack of robot crawlers you encounter in the early parts of Doma Castle.

It's fine if one wants to voice out their preference for pulls, but when the situation calls for AoE due to the aforementioned, one must also adapt.

I totally agree with you but in terms of why people do that I feel like my answer was still a valid one. Is it right for the group and situation? Of course not.

I do it a lot of times just to work on my single target rotation. Especially if there's already a heavy AOE damage job in my group.

So you're making the other DPS do all the work?

Do it on bosses, not mobs.
Who literally tries to do a perfect rotation on a mob lmao...XD
