    When some one is new I always ask if they know what to do in said instance. If yes, then good. But I still ask on all bosses. If no, then I do a quick, important, run down on what to expect then explain things as they come.

    If I am new I usually let people know I've read up on it and watched a video (Mizzteq is the best) so I'll do my best based on what I know.

    Players who explode just think their time is worth more than yours, and think they are the best players ever and they can do it better than you. Its sad more than anything, that they live such a lonely and delusional life.

    Having a keyboard for your Playstation is a godsend.

    Edit (because I have to after seeing this):

    Haha... what? No. It is everyone's. Seriously, this is pathetic. Just because you don't want to type doesn't mean you can sit there and go "Welp, the tank never told them. Not my fault." (you are basically saying this, by saying its the tanks job) Its is everyone's fault if some one new doesn't know what to do. Seriously.

    Haha, someone got a little sensitive. Thanks for being overdramatic and assuming words and faults.

    There are mechanics in every fight that every role should be aware of. A dps and healers should know why the tanks have to swap. The tanks should be aware of the mechanics that dps have to deal with. I believe every tank should take a dps and healer through Titan. A tank yelling "Why can't you guys dodge" to new people in Titan, just means he most likely can't empathize or is to elitist.

    To say to someone it doesn't effect my role so I don't need to know is honestly selfish.

    BTW Lets get some more anger in here. Obviously my tank statement offended half the people in this post.

    I don't find your statement wrong, just a bit misguided. It IS nice for a role in any dungeon, raid or instance, to know what the other roles have to deal with. It allows the healer know what heals should they prepare to do next for certain situations, it allows the DPS to know where they should be mitigating most of their damage, and it allows the tanks to know who to pull enmity from.That information most times isn't necessary to have on your mind as a single role, but it truly helps, and it can make or break the difference between a team that can finish a dungeon in 30 minutes, between a team that needs the entire dungeon time to get it done.
