Is it bad that this is literally what I imagine how some player's I've met are, in more situations that this? (facial expressions, insanity and everything)

This... so much this. I cant describe how this picture made my day and sums up the situation.

Vitality over what you need for a buster allows for more party mistakes. This is not exclusively -your- mistakes, or the healers, but the dps.

Dps messes up. Healer goes to heal them--you wernt topped off, boss hits you again--now lower than what you would like to be. A healer has to decide who to heal, and might let the dps to die because you are in danger, or who knows the reason.

Keep in mind im not advocating stacking vitality, but that vitality beyond the 'amount needed to survive' only works well in statics where people seldom 'mess up'. So determine vitality based off your group performance.

I think thats the part that evades them is that its a team effort, not just an imaginary tanking dps check that will wipe the raid if they dont break 400 dps.

Actually had a STR DRK yesterday trying to AoE tank in Floor 2 that was vividly pissed that I couldnt repeatedly lustrate him fast enough to keep him alive, and that failing to do so ment I was a poor healer.... thats the general attitude.

I wish this image never existed because people take it literally. It's meant to be "wow tanks that don't use their CDs and just focus on DPS are bad!", which is true. But people believe it means "tanks that focus on DPS at all are bad!" which isn't the case. You are hitting the boss, therefore a part of your role is to DPS.

I think, personally, that its completely ok to work on your dps amid being a tank... however the general rule is "Im going to do all strength right because Im a tank and need to dps, avoidance stats are terrible, and if you cant heal me through it you're bad" when it comes to most pug tanks encountered.

I think theres always a way to do all of the above with teamwork, just a matter of that too all too often goes by the wayside for "Rawr numbers" etc

I've always surprised healers with being DRK, I don't take that much damage when I manage my cooldowns. Many go "Wow, a DRK thats not all in strength" is becoming common now.

THEN AGAIN I LOVE TO DPS WITH FULL STRENGTH MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

I like how this comic is spreading around it started on reddit. XD

The whole reason I hate this wearing str accessory meta is because its breeding bad habits in duty finder. Watching tanks die to the hand when soaking damage, either being in dps stance or not having enough hp or getting wrecked by the adds in alex 1. While Noting their extremely low hp and then blaming the healers. I keep wondering what is going on? Why is this happening? Now I just want square to kill this meta and bury it into the ground its ruining DF.
