Sastasha Tanking Guide

Nice video! But there are many DPS out there who won't care a bit about marking and keep spread attacking, because it feels good and rewarding when a DPS can pull enmity from a tank.

When I play BLM it feels good when I'm number 2 on the enmity list, but it does not feel good when I'm about to be #1.

2[xx---] yay
2[xxx--] yay
2[xxxx-] oh crap..

Usually by that time though the tank busts out their Big Stick aggro skill and I'm dropped back down.

Nice video it has all the techniques a good tank should know - one I did notice missing was the corner pull when you have multiple casters. Not something particularly useful for Sas but a mention would be nice. Sadly anytime I attempt these techniques you get a gogogo dps who pulls them from you.

Depending on the job, you'll have to stop and do your AOE aggro skill at least 2 times for those "I WANNA TANK TOO" players. I rarely do corner pulls but when I need to drag a group a mobs, I overpower while in transit and do it one more time if it's a long drag.

No matter the technique though.. CASTER MOBS ARE EXTREMELY ANNOYING.
