    I am that healer, and I ask tanks to pull everything because I'm bored outta my mind otherwise. Just pop your CDs competently and go be brave!

    Your adrenaline deficit is of no concern to anyone else in your party, contrary to what you may believe or was told by hangers-on. Healers who think this way are the ones I trust the least as a tank.

    So...why can't people just ask the tank to pull more? It's just a question to see if the group is okay with it?

    I don't get it.

    Nor is your conservative stance a concern of mine. Sorry I prefer actually healing than mindlessly spamming Stone IV whenever I have tanks pull just three mobs. And before you say otherwise, I have actually tested just how little you need to heal on small pulls. Kugane Castle may be the worst offender, where the DPS can tank small packs themselves. At least with large pulls, I have to think when it's safe to get off Holy for the stun so I can follow up an Aero III cast and still manage the tank's health. It's far more entertaining to play that way.

    Right? I don't see why it would be a big deal. I guess some just hate the idea of large pulls.
