Tanks and super pulls

[whiskeybravo]

You're making these statements and yet I think you made the assumption that your definition of a double pull versus what we are talking about are entirely different.

My definition of a "super pull" (negative context) is when they decide to stack mobs thick that happen to have very dangerous AOE's or multiple AOE's that stack DPS too high for anyone caught in the middle of the mess.

Again, it only takes basic awareness to dodge aoes. I would refer to super pulls as being larger than 2 pulls, of which there are only a few in total (1 or less per dungeon). So it's kind of silly to even argue that "super pulls" are some great detriment to the game, they hardly exist since SE dropped the hammer on "speedrunning" back in ARR.

Aside from that, I was running with the OP's definition of "super tank is it is a tank who pulls more than one mob". Technically this includes double pulls as well. There's a big difference between playing it safe and pulling one mob at a time. My idea of "playing it safe" is simply staying in Defiance for super pulls. So obviously it's a subjective concept.

Fair point - I have trouble with double pulls or any numerical identify (more than one) because not all mobs are equal...and each dungeon has a very different layout in that sense.
