Dear Tanks

[Hayward]

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.

Had this in Brayflox a few days ago.

Probably the dumbest tank -EVER-.

I didn't even look at his ilvls but this guy...

Pulled wall to wall and wiped ON THE FIRST ROOM.
Never touched his CD's.
Didn't bother waiting for his DPS or his healer to start pulling.

I'm not usually toxic ingame. But I had to flat out tell this guy after it was all over that he was the worst Tank I had ever played with.

Please tell me this was not Level 32 Brayflox' Longstop. My faith in humanity is low enough as it is.

Circles have a side, you're either in the circle or out of it. Stop being bad.

[Javey]

Pfft. As a tank who has had party members pull more for me constantly, I don't want to hear it. Just like with healing, you won't be able to please everyone no matter how hard you are trying.

I will say, as a SAM, the big pulls in Skalla are kind of annoying due to the large mobs pushing the smaller ones further out. The way they are tanked sometimes makes it hard to effectively AoE. Doable, but annoying.

The problem is the plethora of circular AoEs and PBAoEs that are too big to be outside of and still be within melee range of the target. Not usually a big deal in and of itself, but if you're fighting a large pack of mobs that spam those abilities and you're a melee DPS, prepare to have a bad time.

Also this. Big mobs within packs are the bane of my Monk's existence.

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.

My first act is pulling as big as I can to test my healers. The healers and tanks in my FC are top tier and we break mobs no matter how many there are

Guys, I think we found _Enigma_'s new account.
