So? If the tank is going to pull pack by pack then QS doesn't save you anyways. Okay, maybe for that one pack before the next refresh.

Bad tank is bad anyways. An average tank can typically hold a non RS double flare. Not sure what's so difficult in holding trash though. :/

One way I deal with them is to hard cast flare then swift-flare instead of swift-flare to see if fire2 or another hard cast flare.

If that hard flare caught aggro, that swift flare would probably settled everything.
