Speaking of AST...

Me as I watch the full crown mentor in the party give the AST who has been performing perfectly well bad advice:

[TaleraRistain]

Honestly, the most annoying ones for me are the ones who won't tank until I pull.

I load in, I see the other tank has no stance.
No stance on during the whole cutscene wait.
Cutscenes finish, no stance.
Give it a few secs, turn mine on, pull, and they immediately turns theirs on and start competing for aggro during opener burst.

Like dood, if you want to tank, give me a sign.

This drives me up the wall in alliance raids especially. I'm not concerned about which of us MTs so if someone does this on the first boss if I pulled it, I'll drop stance and give them the chance to pull on the next boss. Then on next boss they wait and wait and wait and wait. A dps or healer pulls so I put up stance and toss a Lightning Shot and try to get the fight going...and the other tank puts on stance and immediately provokes again. I don't give a darn which of us tanks. I just want one of us to do it.

Oh man, that sucks! Some people really don't deserve the crown orz

Did a Dun Scaith where the first boss I didn't even have time to DPS. I was raising and raising and raising.

Did you know the boss if it survives long enough it can putt death fields on the entire battleground causing a full wipe? Well now you do cause people were living challenged.

AST has good Mana management though. I raised a record 48 times that entire run. Was never fully bone dry.

Same here, I like main tanking but I tend to sit around without stance on and see if one of the others is going because I hate fighting over aggro/random voking in the first 30 seconds.

dzemeal darkhold (i think thats the english name?)

the tank was a newbe and he obviously didnt know how to handle ranged enemies. he looked pretty helpless going back and forth trying to pull them tofether xD.
so i said 'hide behind an edge to pull ranged enemies together'

the healer was instantly like: what are you talking about? he did fine.

dude stop the overprotection i didnt shame him. i gave him a tip, a simple tip. not even critisism is shaming. i swear this overprtection stuff is way worse than people are sensitiv about themselves


in the end befiore we left the tank thanked me for my advice

. I wish more tanks would do this with those damn bogey ghost things in Dzemael.

I especially hate it when they intentionally plant themselves on the other side of the boss.

Death still needs help being a good teacher. But yeah, I'd be more concerned with the fact that people were constantly dying to the point where the soft enrage happened. I've seen it happen and it makes me worry about some people.

Another thing I wish tanks did...is run THROUGH the second pack of enemies so that they are all gathered on one side of the tank, rather than completely circling them making it a LOT harder for the DPS with AoEs that don't reach very far to be able to hit everything. So many tanks I get stop right in front of the second pack, making it so half the pull is behind them and half in front.
