Prepulling mobs as healer

[Vulcann]

Tank main here who also heals quite regularly... Some of the opinions in here are real hot takes that quite frankly are coming from people who shouldn't be tanking. Plain and simple.

no the people who are in the wrong is ANYONE who queues up with a random tank and pulls. yes accidents happen and in some cases a person outside of the tank might pull an add and in that case the tank should pick it up.

HOWEVER the way the later dungeons in FFXIV are laid out if you are pulling adds then you are doing it intentionally and yes that is WRONG. i don't give a crap if you are bored or if you are trying to be more "efficient" or whatever your excuse to be an asshole is. the tanks job is to set the pace of the dungeon and pull how THEY want to pull. if you don't like it then leave the roulette and queue with players that will play how you want to play. don't force your ways on random players that you don't know their skill level or playstyle.

like this shouldn't even have to be a post or a question, when did the community get like this that people are actually justifying the original posters bullshit ideas.

Who said that, the tank police?

that's literally the way its worked in most MMOs except maybe Everquest 1.

Tank is the pace setter, they pull the mobs and decide how they want to play the dungeon. anyone else who pull is simply an asshole in most MMO communities.
