It isn't *always* an advantage to pull multiple groups

[Synestr]

if you were a paladin? yeah maybe

but if you're a WAR and Unchained/Berserk is off CD, it's always worth it to pull a large group. Hell, I think it's worth it any time you can afford to spam OP for >=75% of a large pull.

But sometimes the DPS you get are a little special =\

Amen to that...

So I can look at this from all sides of the equation, so let's get this started!

As a tank: I like big pulls, and I cannot lie. (Okay, that was bad) However, that being said, I base my pulls off of who is in my party and how much life my healer has. I don't care about their mind stat -- base gear raises life. If they've got at least 4500 HP, I'll do just fine with a pretty decent pull. If I have a BLM in my party, you can bet I'll be pushing my healer to their limits. But the problem with this is that it wipes out the healer's MP, especially if they're a WHM. So I wait. This is apparently something rare enough that brings me to...
