Why do Tanks get a bad Rep?

All doing big pulls with single-target based classes does is exhaust your healer's MP keeping you up for the duration of it. a SMN/BLM in the mix can help out on these AoE pulls, and that is where I might test it, but without those classes? I likely will keep it smaller to encourage faster kill rates instead of bigger mob pulls.

Meh. Whm/sch can both put out more dps in AoE situations. So regardless of your dps comp, your healers will always be able to dish out a bit more with larger pulls - assuming they're good enough stance dancers to keep you up. MP is really a non-issue in dungeons.

I don't think you're necessarily right or wrong, but it depends on the healers. A boss-mode healer can make large pulls worth it even with mnk/mnk comp, but if they aren't then it doesn't matter.

Edit tldr; do what's best for your group. Just wanted to point out that there aren't really situations where small pulls are more efficient if we're assuming people are playing optimally.
