    Things are lost in the heat of battle. First boss of AK is easy, but I prefer DPS that let the rock adds get to me before they kill them, but some think it's cute to stun it {Over There} and kill it before it gets to me. Later in the fight when you're dealing with big red, rock adds take just a second longer to pick up if i couldn't drop the pile of rubble where I wanted.

    (Now I'm fond of just tanking the rock adds too, and not killing them, but this is an example.)

    Did the Paladin really fail at stunning Ifrit or has someone in the alliance got their stun in their rotation? You can check the log to see, but we all know how painful these logs are to navigate.
    Well, you should be picking up the rock adds on the first boss in AK regardless of what your DPS are doing (skip to 11 min of the video in my sig to watch how I do it), and if someone else is using a stun on Ifrit, you have ample time to call that out, and tell them to stop. If they don't you can pretty much guarantee a wipe, if they do, it will be very apparent it wasn't the PLD's fault.
