    Respectfully, be the change you want to see. Newbie good-hearted tanks could have tankxiety and will try their best to not screw it up for the party, making them pull less out of need for safety.
    Reassure them they can pull more, teach them that the standard is 2 packs (or wall to wall in later dungeons), make them feel comfortable trusting the healer.

    Build their confidence so that they can start pulling more out of habit. If they have a successful run where they themselves decided to pull more and it worked it does 1000x more for them than being forced to play catch up with the group and then just consider it as getting lucky.

    which they can do on lvls 1-50 (or fine, if GNB, 60-70). But like i say, once you get to SHB/EW/DT zones, no, you have had enough time to figure it out

    It is wild to me that people say SHB/EW/DT content is new players figuring it out so be nice to them. And, if they purchased a story skip, that is really on them too.

    Fair enough. I had a Lapis Manalis run where we kept wiping to Galatea Magna who didn't know you could use Esuna to remove the Doom debuff. Had to teach them how to tell which debuffs can and can't be removed with Esuna. They had pleeeeeeeeenty of time to learn, but it's never to late to tell them anyway!
