    So we heard that there were not enough tanks..



    This was not a setup. It was just invites to strangers to a FATE party in Coerthas Central Highlands. To our surprise, for every party invites sent out, we gained a Paladin+1.

    I imagine many people are leveling tanks as alts for a faster way to get tomes. I know that is what I do. I play BLM as my main, but when I don't have FC or pre-made groups I will hop on PLD to run dungeons without a queue.

    Now if only they were running dungeons instead of doing FATEs. Oh wait...doing dungeons is pretty much a waste of time when you want to level. My bad.

    The reason is you are doing fate, in event sequence

    1) People cry there is not enough tanks
    2) Every dps hates DF timer, so they started leveling Tank
    3) Everyone does fate to level up fast
    4) Eveyone is now a Tank

    I was trying to unlock dragoon, and i had a 8 tank group in aleport last night...

    People leveling tanks up to 50 =/= more tanks pugging 50 content. Not to mention all the 1.0 players who have their 50 tanks hanging up like ornaments. There will always be a shortage of tanks in max level pug content.

    Just an observation. As for why most people don't play their tanks with strangers when they get to 50... well, there are plenty of threads for that.

    I think people don't play tank, because tanks are the first one to get blamed for others mistakes.

    Healer overhealing and pulling hate, that's the tanks fault.
    WHM casting regen before the tank pulls and gets hate, that's the tanks fault.
    DD doing damage before the tank gets hate, that's the tanks fault.
    BRD not using quelling strike and pulling hate, that's the tanks fault.
    DDs not hitting the marked mobs, that's the tanks fault too.

    ...need I go on?

    From my experience it's usually the tanks doing the blaming.

    Had that as well levelling PLD a month back, nearly every party was at least 4 paladins, record being 7 as yours. Warriors? Think I saw one once.
