Yeah I *used* to play tank as well. While I may not have tanked a lot on this character, I have tanked more than enough to know that unless I actually know the people I go in with, it's just not going to happen. I am at some point going to level up both the tank jobs further because now they have tied them to DRK when they originally said they wouldn't, but that's neither here nor there.

I have had absolutely horrendous experiences with tanking on my "other" characters to know that when I eventually do take them up just for the skills, it will probably be solo in leves/guilhests and fates. Unless I can get people I actually know and/or trust to have a good time regardless of circumstances in the dungeons go along with
