Can we get entry ilvl for levelling dungeons already?

I disagree, there are situations that trying to get aggro on every mob is more trouble than it's worth.

There are always exceptions; pointing out specific scenarios doesn't make the original statement, as a whole, false. When someone tells a sprout "do your best to avoid AoEs" do you decide to say "well ACTUALLY there are these specific AoEs in these specific duties for these specific mechanics that you want to get hit by, so you are wrong."? While there are a few examples of AoEs that you should stand in, that doesn't mean that we should have to list every exception to the original statement to avoid being called out.


Here's my mob tanking in dungeons done as a priority system, with examples of things to not require tanking being in the parenthesis:

1. Does the mob (BLM/WHM/RNG/THF/BRD Moogles in Thornmarch HM) use an aggro table which allows me to be their main target, either for damage or mechanics? If yes then go to #2.
2. Does the mob (Force Fields from Ala Mhigo) actually do any damage or have mechanics that require me to be top aggro? If yes, then go to #3.
3. Does the mob (The tiny ice sprites after the 2nd boss of Snowcloak) die too fast and deal too little damage to require establishing aggro? If not, go to #4.
4. Does the mob (the tiny Fausts that give stacks in A4N) have any mechanics where me tanking it would be a disadvantage? If not, then you should probably tank it.

That's about as broad of a ruleset that I can think of that covers a majority of all content that isn't Extreme, Savage, or Ultimate.
