Healers who rescue pull tanks into mobs.

As much as people love to shit on tanks in this thread I disagree. Dungeon runs are a team effort, absolutely. But the tank is ultimately the one taking aggro on everything so they're the only ones getting slapped around and should decide if they can wall pull or not. If you say you prefer big pulls at the start of a dungeons and still feel the need to rescue the tank into the next pack, idk how this is not toxic.

A friendly advice from a fellow healer, I usually let the tank know(nonverbal) I can handle more by running just a bit ahead, not enough to pull more but to let them know hey you can keep going if you want to! More often than not they will then keep pulling more and if the tank continues to burn down the current trash then I know, OK that's what they're comfortable with. No player can tell you how much you should heal or do dmg, nobody can tell the dps to just do their aoe rotation in between bosses and no one should tell the tank how much to pull, everyone has their own role.

yeah i also do that but sometimes i fear the other scenarios where a) they just don't know more mobs are ahead that you can aggro . b) they fear i can't heal enough. i'm sorry if i'm sounding silly but no one ever flamed for those rescues i'm really trying to understand i swear.

It's called RESCUE **NOT** pull the Tank into more MOBS. That isn't what rescue is about. You're not the tank and have no business pulling ahead of the tank let alone pulling them somewhere they don't want to be.

Why would you leave? I don't really see rescue as a toxic spell, i'm trying to help you clear faster and if we fail it's on me, could you please explain why you find it... offensive? like when i use it i'm not thinking anything bad about the tank, since i've never played it i'd like to know what's the bad thing about being pulled near more mobs. like i'm legit trying to think about what could make it worse for the tank but unless the mobs spam a lot of aoes they have to dodge to make the pull possible i don't really see any other reason.

I don't like it being done to me because I don't like how it feels like I'm being controlled/forced to be/think/play a certain way. I've said in another thread that it's ok to pull 30 mobs me into me lol, but DON'T pull me into 30 mobs. I don't single pull an entire dungeon, some pulls are just nasty and my body can't handle it even with CDs unless the healer wants to be a curebot. So I will keep certain mobs separate, like the bigger hard hitting mobs, bunch those up with baby mobs and I feel like wet torn tissue paper that was still too much to be flushed. 10 baby mobs? Yeah you bet I'm gonna go for it.

i'm really trying to understand i swear.

I believe you. Your mindset will probably change once you begin tanking. I haven't healed yet(only unlocked the one I will level), maybe mine will too, who knows, but I certainly wont rescue tanks into more mobs.

Edit: Perhaps my style revolves around my body handling it and making sure the healer isn't being stressed out with healing me.

ok i kinda see the point now thank you, i'll try to shut down this bad habit of mine.
