Of course we can have a hybrid but I’m just seeking an extreme of each side (which IMO would be the ideal scenario) since most of us live in a PUG life.
The first scenario doesn't really make sense. Everyone is always focusing on damage-managing aggro as a dps and healer only requires pressing a button, which doesn't reduce dps, whereas the tank having to do more aggro combos than necessary does reduce dps. This is why it's muuuuuuuch more optimal for the dps and healers to help out with aggro, rather than having the tank needlessly turtle in tank stance, spamming aggro combos for no reason.
