Don't pull it if you can't hold it!

It's one thing if you can't hold pulls.

It's another when you're holding pulls and DPS/healer decide to just stand around doing dismal amount of damage and barely healing you. Especially when you're tanking 10+ said mobs of BrayHM. And when the healer keeps pulling aggro on that last coeurl because they keep standing in the doorway. And when BLM suddenly dies for no reason (other than probably standing in AoE).

I used to tank in WoW, and in my experience there's a lot of pressure from DPS to pull big, mainly because they want to see pretty numbers on the meters. My personal rule was never go for large pulls unless it was the healer asking for them. It made me a slow tank, but it's a pretty good rule ... especially in PUGs where the last thing you want to see as a healer is a tank who wants to make everything your fault.

I was fine taking Brayflox HM Slowly when it was released, but now I have cleared that dungeon over 80 times, I just want my Soldiery cap now... Since those Tomestones take 10 runs to cap each week, I just like it to be over with. I've tanked every single dungeon over 90 times already, so can you blame me for wanting it over with fast?

PS, I don't fail at holding aggro. =P

I can hold Big Mob groups fine, Flash and Savage Blade combo is what keeps me healthy in the mana pool. Scorns helps a little too, but only like a little little.
