Hi,

When I queue for WP in DF and I am grouped with a bard, I tend to ask the bard use Mage's Ballad in almost every pull. The reason for this is simply because this allows me to pull much bigger, and it also eliminates any downtime. However, I have noticed that some bards simply refuse to use it even when they have full mp pool, and seeing how I do not even have a lvl 1 bard, I can't tell if he/she is not doing their job, or if I am requesting too much from them.

So, my question is this: do you hate it when a tank makes such request? I understand that there is some opportunity cost associated with using Mage's Ballad, but is the alternative more beneficial to the group than using Mage's Ballad?
