So this started happening.

Seems to be a huge uptick in tanks that won't mitigate after the influx of players from that other company's game. Ya'll know the company. Rhymes with lizard.

There always have been crappy tanks in this game. Imo i see more newcomers who seem to be used to MMORPG´s than returners / standard players who don´t know what to do on any class. There are even more than enough mentors (or who has been mentors in Shb) not knowing anything and avoiding big pulls, leaving in mentorroulette etc... even the most ppl stand still and have the opinion that kiting doesn´t help, which is definately not true too. (If you do it correctly you get like 25-50% less damage and the healer can DPS way more in big pulls.)

There's always been a startlingly large amount of tanks in this game that wont mitigate or outright refuse to do so when asked. Just like there's a large number of DPS who won't AoE, or healers who won't DPS.
Not everything bad is the fault of WoW players, it's honestly getting really tiring of seeing this train of thought on the forums.

Because the game that'd actually make large pulls unmanageable without mitigation, even under full spam heals, and frequently requires outright kiting and CC at higher tiers of dungeon play... is the one that'd train its players to not bother mitigating?

As a main healer i must also admit that the DRK is the most heal intensive tank atm. In expert dungeons when the DRK tank pulls two groups i must pump healing like crazy and hope that most enemies die before i run out of cooldowns.

The DRK is really broken atm and way weaker than the other tanks.
