    I am pretty sure those who frequently tank know of their limits, while they remain unsure about the skill of the healer they have in the group and perhaps play it a bit safer than usual.

    And, yes, many still can't keep up with clearing groups fast enough, so it becomes a problem for the tank/healer. Bardam's Mettle and the first groups in Holminister Switch/Dohn Mheg are clear examples of this.
    or you could pull big, test your and the group's limit with pull sizes and adjust accordingly afterwrds instead of being scared about possibly dying and wiping

    When I pull, I pull big. Or, used to, in pugs.
    And believe me, there are enough cases where I end up hitting the dirt in the above said dungeons, even with defensive cooldowns fired. Either by healers/DPS not equipped/skillful enough to clear the groups fast enough.

    At times it really shows that leveling in potd/hoh makes for subpar players when facing actual dungeons that are somewhat demanding.

    Seeing Black Mages still using Transpose in Level 72+ rotations shows how much DPS care for staying on top with their job.
