Why do tanks no use coold downs?

[Lastelli]

Oh, hey, another 'X that don't-'

Yeah, let's see how long until someone tries to justify a tank that doesn't use defensive cd.

I'll take that bullet.

Ahem.

Tanks don't need cooldowns on Normal Bosses.

and Healers don't need to DPS to clear content.
We could argue about this all day but in all honesty, sub-optimal playing shouldn't be encouraged. If you choose to ignore parts of your skills and only do the bare minimum, then don't be surprised when everyone else decides to do the same and either wipe or be doing something in an hour that should only take 20 minutes at best.

Sorry I should have clarified. I'm actually fine with this because bosses are usually easy to heal through. I'm talking about players pulling packs of 3 to 4 and NOT using any cd's. I've had excelent runs where the tank did huge pulls but used cd's and we came out fine, and they use sword stance and again things turned out fine.

What I do have a problem with is players who pull large amounts and then expect the healer to "adjust" while they do nothing to mitigate incoming damage.

[Mavrias]

Aren't you the person who was complaining about big pulls as a tank?

UGH I despise tanks who dont use CD's. Use CD's please help the healer who is trying to support the group.
