    If you can't be bothered to use Diversion (or any agro management tools) when needed, then don't be surprised if the healer can't be bothered to heal you or the tank can't be bothered to Provoke.

    Your solution for someone who can't be bothered to use one ability...is to give them an excuse to not use any ability by letting them die and stay dead...that'll teach them.

    Or the tank could, you know- not lose aggro.

    Same logic.

    Optimal play is everyone pushing out maximum DPS. This includes the Tanks.

    As such, for Tanks to push out optimal DPS, they have to minimize Enmity gain, because enmity gain tools are net DPS losses in most cases.

    Thus, the use of enmity reduction tools from DPS and Healers becomes very important. As this facilitates the Tank to need to produce less Enmity and thus focus more on DPS.

    Advocating for inoptimal play is a terrible suggestion.

    I think I made it clear it's what I do, not what people should do. If not, whoops. People seem to be highly over hyping the difficulty of a dungeon. 1 loss of aggro does not end a run. Bloodbath for melee makes sure of it as long as it's not 3-4 mobs chomping at them, which is very unlikely.

    No, but bad habits carry over into the content where it would most definitely matter. Use your toolkit. Everyone else is expected to. ‘Controller space’ or ‘This is easy content eks dee’ is an inadequate excuse to not use your kit. Take it from a BRD main who would love to have her Quelling Strikes back...

    Excuse me ma'am, but I play the class that has the longest opener and guess what half of my skills, including diversion, are not chotbar 1 and I STILL use diversion. Its not that hard and I use a controller as well. It is not even uncomfortable to do what you suggested and that is why people are at you. And this excuse that that dungeons are not that hard? Have you ever healed castrum before? No seriously have you? Or hell, how about the Burn when it was new? Because I can tell you right now if a tank pulls two mobs and some dipshit dps pulls a mob off the tank they aren't just getting itty bitty hurt. You're health is getting mowed down just as hard as the tank with the multiple mobs. You're mentality is wrong.

    Calm down. Text doesn't carry tone too well but you seem awfully worked up. My mentality isn't wrong, because it works and it will continue to work. I'm sorry that me not using 1 button upsets you. But hey, my gear is fine.

    Worked up? No. Making fun of how you really don't know what you're talking about? Yes. And I was not talking about gear, mate. You, a monk, will cause grief for the healer in pulls because you do not have the health nor the defense of a tank and one monster can/will hurt you enough that they will have to stop focusing on the tank (who is number priority here) to heal you. And you complain that switching hotbars is too tough, try micro managing a tank that is taking massive damage and dumb dps that won't use one cd to help the party 'bc its too hard'. If you still think that attitude is okay then I have no words for you. That is selfishness at its finest. It's one button. Map it out and push it.

    Your mentality is very wrong. You make your party members work harder because you are lazy af. I honestly hope that tanks will call you out or shirk you until you stop making their lifes miserable just because you can't be bothered to press one damn button.
