Dear DPS.

Dear Tank,

If you mark a kill target don't worry I will attack that one first and put dots on that target first.
However, after I have applied my dots I will switch targets to another enemy and apply dots to that one, then the next enemy and rotate. Or I may use rock-breaker if there's 3+ in the mob.
I will however finish off an enemy if its almost dead to make it easier on you.

I like to spread DoTs (or use rock-breaker sometimes) on multiple targets for two reasons:
1) It increases DPS and thus, while things die around the same time instead of in a sequence, it does overall make the mob die faster so the dungeon can be cleared faster.
2) It helps you hold aggro so i don't steal aggro from you. If I wail on only one target I will pull aggro off from you and onto myself and this happens frequently. By allowing you to maintain aggro on the mob as I spread out my DoTs/rock-breaker, I ensure that the group survives overall as aggro stays on the tank where it should be.

Now you may complain that you're taking more damage because things are living longer and the damage isnt being alleviated from stuff being killed in sequence. Do not worry, it is just trash mobs. The healer can heal you through it easily. healing through trash is piss easy, especially when all aggro is only on the tank instead of dps taking aggro from hating on one enemy. The only time people die to trash mobs is by getting hit by AoE which is another issue or if the tank can't hold aggro and enemies start attacking the dps or healer in which case will not be a problem because of my reasoning number 2.

Sincerely, DPS

P.S. Please learn to hold aggro on the whole mob, not just the one you marked or else they'll start attacking everyone.
