Tank entitlement vs group entitlement

[Clicked]

Personally, if someone asks me to pull bigger i will do so.

However, if it goes wrong and we die as a result i will point fingers at the people who told me to pull bigger.

"I did as you asked, we died, it is your fault because it was your idea"

Making people feel bad is unnecessary. All you have to say is "I'll dial it back so we can stay alive".

"BAD TANK! WE WIPED BECAUSE OF YOU!" They shout.

I've tanked for a while now and I've died several times because of a large pull gone wrong. I've never had a group say anything like this to me. Maybe I'm lucky?

As for the subject at hand, it's very simple. If you want to tank to speed up, ask. If they don't, you sure can kick them, but you'll have to wait for someone else to replace them and there's no guarantee the new tank will be any better. So your call I guess.

Wall to wall pulls don't speed things up all THAT much because most jobs can't just AOE spam indefinitely without single target damage mixed in, the tanks and melee will be dancing around a lot more with more telegraphs to avoid, and healers give up more GCDs to keep up the tank so the DPS AOEs needs to make up for that.

The sad fact of the matter is that tanks are usually the designated scapegoat whenever egotistical jerkwads who can't handle the idea of being held responsible for their own failures bork something up.

Unless the tank is the egotistical bastard, then it's usually the healer who gets attacked.

This usually happens in a manner that eerily resembles the way politicians attempt to deflect attention away from themselves whenever the press comes sniffing for their dirty laundry.

So yes, consider yourself lucky.
