"You pull, you tank" is a bad mentality

at the end of the day it is a question of respect and communication

Thery don't care they want things to go their way and throw a tantrum when they don't.
This thread is probably just shifting blame for the tank not playing along.

oh I don't deny such at all honestly most people forget that they play a MULTIPLAYER games and not a solo RP. honestly I have played with many player that if they want to take it slow go ahead I have all my time after all work ask me to rush all the time.

thing became worst when everyone use the words "my time" like in my book if your time is precious go play a solo RP or play with trust.

I have to ask just where people are encountering this with any form of regularity to it to even be a subject to talk on? I am curious if its a DC thing.
Besides like, 3 instances in the game, you literally just run from wall to wall and kill everything, repeat until get to boss, kill boss, repeat for rest of dungeon and it's not even a "hardcore" way to do it, it's not like you need your cooldowns for the bosses and if you doing half pulls you'll be wasting them. It's the FF formula for encounters.

I mean I don't pull and if I tank, I wall to wall so maybe I've just never noticed but haven't seen anything get said.

Honestly this has been my experience and I’ve been playing since 2.0 lol. I can honestly count on one hand the amount of times I’ve seen tanks and dps/healer fighting over who should pull. That’s including both while I was on Balmung for a while (don’t ask lol ) and on Odin now. Most of the time even if someone does face-pull the tank can just press like literally any button to immediately get aggro and we continue on with nobody saying anything lol

The question is, why is the tank behind the group in the first place, i almost never have that problem because i already run before the last mob is dead.

"You tank it you pull it!" is the tank equivalent of "I'm a HEALER so why am I expected to cast Glare!?"
Only people with massive egos say it, and it's better to instead just do your job. It's not a big deal your DPS want to clear faster, but it is a big deal that you are actually going to throw because you just can't be asked to hit the aoe button by anyone but yourself.

Skiros is a goof, but this is actually a real point tbh.

So I wanna ask what if someone in your party refuses to bring the adds they pull to the tank? Is it the tank's fault or that party member fault for refusing to bring adds to the tank? I have had lots of people pull ahead when I told them I need a moment to get my dog some water or I needed to adjust my headphones. If they pull while I am afk they have to tank adds till I'm back

to be honest it happen with me often but I sprint before pulling so I reach the second faster because some pulls have a long-distance between each other

If the tank / healer is not confident enough to pull everything and it takes extra work to pull agro off of a dps or healer that is running around because the adds are murdering them for being dumb, ypyt is very understandable!

From a tank perspective I have to chase the adds because you are impatient you deserve to respawn at the start of the dungeon F off. Mind you I don't normally do YPYT it really just depends I usually pull everything that is required by default so people have to really work to get a ypyt mentality out of me. :/

My brother in christ there is no "extra work".
It takes a single GCD to pull enmity , you aren't chasing after anything, the entire party is going to the same spot. Just run into the pack at the end of the linear path with a huge wall preventing you from going further and do your normal AoE rotation.

It doesn't affect you in the slightest. The ONLY person even moderately affected by it is the healer (as they may need to top the DPS up if they aren't using bloodbath/second wind), not the tank, and by YPYTing you're making the healers job even worse because you're having a hissy fit.
