    Oh, the irony

    But a DPS job is also to manage enmity which includes bringing mobs to the tank.
    So it cant be against ToS for tank in this case, they arent refusing to do their job.

    However, if healer's running slow at the back or isn't keeping up. Or if you don't know the layout well enough and are just pulling unnecessary shit, or etc etc. I will let you die.

    It quite simply boils down to "don't be a jackass" (tanks included) and work with the general pace of the group. Don't see how this is so contentious.
    This is a small pp tank mindset no one needs lol. Don't let people die and just do your best. If you wipe you wipe. It's really not that hard

    Receive it how you want. Couldn't care less.

    If you want to act like a jackass on my tank run, you'll have plenty of time to ponder if I'm on a "powertrip" when you are dead on the floor.

    And I'll remind you regardless of your many thought experiments or analysis of my mental state, you fucked up.

    No need to ponder if you are or arent on a powertrip, you're just telling everyone that you are. Unfortunate how inconsiderate some people are in here of the time of other people.

    Can't say I get it. It takes more effort to turn off stance and start sandbagging than it does to just run in and pull mobs off of people. And for what, because a dps dared to pull something before you decided it was time?

    Anyway, I find it the funniest when tanks take this attitude and then get to watch impotently while a competent healer and dps clear a pack without them.

    That's always the funniest part. Some people are under the impression that we tanks are necessary but the reality is that we arent. I personally am a tank who wants to pull every mob myself. So I just activate sprint and it has been ages that someone actually got in front of me. I'm honestly impressed by people who do.
