A support role by making decisions how to approach enemies and how to pull them and when it is appropriate to. In the broader context that I dominate the party and the enemies in the decision-making of what is appropriate based on our skill and overall performance. Some people seem to think I want to step on them (some people like that too) but that's not what I mean. How you define it is up to you entirely but I believe as a tank you're at the top of making decisions and the healer's job is not to kill their party, conversely a DPS shouldn't play like a tank when the circumstances of your party haven't been layed bare yet. If a healer pulls enemies that's fine because I can see their confidence but a DPS has no healing power to sustain the whole party and that already shows me their ego is bigger than the amount of enemies they pull. This can easily go wrong in certain instances.
