    Sorry but for most dungeons 50 you shouldn't loose agro, just learn to keep hates better. The amount of bad lv50 tanks is truly impressing, it's even more sad when they are in the ilv100-ilv120+ range, what a shame.

    You just can't ask your DPS to nerf themselves just because your tank is pure garbage, if he/she can't hold hate on pack of mobs as level 50 with decent gears, then the problem isn't your DPS but the tank. And so, the solution is simple get better at tanking or change main job.
    so what your saying is if someone pulls ahead of the tank and healer we are supposed to run after them and save their ***es? yeah if they want to pull ahead then their lives are up to them to save, so now you have a good day.

    Oh, you mean specifically running ahead and pulling? Nah, if they want to tank that bad, I'll let them. The suggestion has been made more than once, too, to go with friends. Perhaps try that first instead of snapping at those here who are trying to offer you ideas. ^^v

    I've run my fair share of dungeons and I can't recall a single time where someone felt inclined to run ahead and pull. Judging by the fact that you felt like creating a thread about this, I'm guessing this is a regular occurrence for you. Have you ever considered that the pace you set while tanking dungeons might be a little slow?

    I've seen this quite frequently. Often people will rush ahead without shield buffs and die. Its level 50 content, not sastasha. Let's be smarter than to think you're tanking the whole thing as a dps. What is rare though is a slow tank, but i see impatient party members all day.

    That's not what I said, also your main post wasn't pointing at this.
    Of course early puller as DPS should not happen and the healer is actually in the right to let the said DPS die miserably for pulling solo.

    It will not speed up anything by pulling early/solo if your base team is already "bad or low", having good DPS but poor heal/tank or good heal/tank doing massive pulls but crappy DPS will provide the same result and will set your dungeon speed since the very start. #commonlogic.

    Doesn't change what I said in my previous post though.
