Why are people calling it “casualbringers” now?

[ForteNightshade]

A shame so many healers have thanked me for doing what I do and telling me how much easier it is for them to heal me and focus on DPS than a lot of other tanks, but go ahead and continue to argue for something that will no longer be apart of the game in what 30 days now?

They were either bad, inexperienced or played with tanks who didn't pop CDs. Very often you'll find healers who assume all <insert tank name> are squishy because they ran into a few too many over the week who thought Anticipation is a good CD for tank busters. You also realize allowing healers to focus on their DPS at the expense of your own is a loss, yes? Tanks contribute far higher DPS than a tank forced into tank stance. A Warrior is giving up Fell Cleave so a White Mage can get in a couple extra Stone IV's.

The fact tank stance is getting overhauled in a month doesn't change what you said is simply incorrect. I am just as easy to heal with 99% Deliverance usage and proper CD management as you except I'll also contribute over 2k+ more damage.

Don’t you dare call my friends bad, that is incredibly presumptuous and arrogant of you, not everyone is a savage raider, the people I play with think I do well and they do good too and that’s all that maters to me, calling people you’ve never met is rude and insulting. We are not struggling to clear dungeons or trials they aren’t bad, bad wouldn’t be able to clear basic content.

These forums do not reflect the mentality of the majority that play this game. These people like to bicker back and forth about nothing. They will all be playing Shadowbringers regardless of what they say.

I disagree, now bicker with me please.

Way to skip over the rest of the post in that heroic defense of your friends.

Well that's a little extreme, don't you think?

As long as you're contented with playing alongside your less optimized friends, why get so bent out of shape over a post on some forums?

I don't think that was their whole point...

This is the anthem of you don't pay my sub, for sure. Perhaps a new copypasta?

Clearing story dungeons is a low bar to set, my dude.

Lucky you that i'm not the one making the decisions.

I tend to go the Literal Genie Route when people ask me to do something.

Others: DPS is all that matters, forget about everything else!
Me: Okay *Forgets about defense, dies to a tankbuster*
Others: *Dies horribly as the boss turns away from my corpse and rips into them*
Wipe.
Me: I focused on MAX DEEPS! and forgot about everything else just like you told me to, stop whining.
Others: OMG BAD! U SUCK!
Me: I followed orders. Orders that you gave...Don't blame the soldier for walking into a minefield, blame the commander for ordering him and his squad to walk into it.
Others: ¤)(%>/(&T#¤=()!

I take things quite literally, so be careful what you are asking for.

Others: REMOVE TANK STANCE!
Me if i were a dev: Okay *Removes Tank Stance, changes nothing else, thereby making it impossible for tanks to establish an aggro lead, ensuring that everyone dies forever because the boss is always going after everyone BUT the tanks*
Others: ¤)%(&#=¤>&(/=!
Me: There, tanking is no longer a thing, now you can focus on nothing but DPS! Just like you asked!
Others: *Dying all over the place because Tankbusters* #W)"%%&)/&)/¤=")%/!!!11!

Like i said, Literal Genie.

I'm kind of an ass in that one specific way.

This is why i should not be put in any kind of position of power, i would end up giving every random fool who don't think things through what they ask for in the worst possible way because they asked in a way that invites disaster when taken literally.

You would fit right in at Blizzard though. Heck, they'd probably make you the lead dev of WoW!

(For what it's worth I can actually appreciate your sense of humor)
