    That's part of being a dps, you were doing it right.

    The dps mentality of DPS DPS DPS DPS, for some situations it's fine when you "have" to get things done before death comes knocking but dps should always be paying attention to there situation, others situations and their hate control in battle. Sounds to me like your just doing your job right unlike many that seemingly want to burn through content as fast as possible and think we tanks can compensate for their stupidity.

    To an extent. If we have used all enmity- tools available to us and we are still flashing red - then the tank has a problem. This forces DPS to hold back, which basically means the tank is holding the party up. It's not about "rushing" through content, it's about winning fights efficiently.
