    1- as others have said, I actually use sprint in combat so it might be on cd (and I'd hate it being on cd during the fight because I used it on trash)
    2- more often than not, tank needs some time being forward because stop to aggro a group, go again, stop and grab another and so on. As a healer or dps, if you go as fast as the tank you're often standing there waiting, since you shouldn't heal or dps until aggro is established.
    It's all very situational. Of course as a healer I try to be gluey, but that might lead to the "too early" consequence.

    If no one else wants the chests, you can skip them and just follow the group. Then when everyone leaves, hit return to go back to the front of the dungeon and run through again. Now all the chests they didnt want are yours, and you dont have to worry about missing any GCDs.

    As for sprinting, no. Ill happily follow a couple seconds behind you. That way youve established aggro and positioning as im getting there, and i can go straight into my full aoe onslaught.

    I feel like the majority of players forget they have Sprint in dungeons. As a healer I hate watching tanks pull wall to wall but get their butts kicked from one end of the other because they didn't push the Sprint button, and as a tank I hate it because I sprint ahead and end up having to pop way more cooldowns because my group is still a hundred yalms away skipping through fields and picking flowers on their way to the next pack of enemies, and as DPS? OH MY GOSH EVERYONE IS SLOW HURRY UP JEEZ.

    Mini rant over?
    Expecting randoms to have situational awareness in dungeons? Ha!

    Honestly I feel like the OP has to much faith in the rest of players in the instance. As a tank I never use Sprint because I don't need it to dodge any mechanic and to assume your party will keep up is basically like casting doom on yourself. As a healer/dps I'll use it if the tank does. Otherwise it's something I almost never use.

    The party should be syncing their sprint with the tank in a dungeon, not the other way around.

    So if the tank doesn't use sprint in combat nobody else should? Oh I didn't know we were playing a different game.

    That's not at all what that means, but if thats what you wanna glean from it, sure. I don't personally use sprint in boss fights in dungeons just because there's no mechanic thats not telegraphed for 8 years before it goes off. That's not to say you can't. However, its a minute long cooldown,, so if you're the type of person to moan about the tank getting too far ahead when they're doing big pulls, you should try and plan for sprint to be off cooldown by the time the boss fight is over.

    The range on most heal spells is 30 yalms. 20 yalms puts them in the sweet spot of being able to dodge ae or mechanics and still keep you in range. What's the problem?

    Sprint doesn't increase damage and my 4 (four!!!!!) hotbars are already full. I don't have space to put sprint on my overloaded hotbar. I suspect many players are in the same position as me. Between increasing my DPS with a useful damage ability or sprint, I think I will always go with the former.
