The major reason there was a dedicated "puller" in XI but doesn't need to be in XIV is because tanks actually have a ranged attack besides pebbles and Dia (WAR's Tamahawk was a merited ability at 75 iirc.)

That said, pulling was one of my favorite activities in XI. I pulled on THF. I pulled on BRD. I pulled in exp camps, I pulled in Dynamis, I pulled open world bosses. I live pulled, I sac pulled. If it moved, I pulled it. I loved the satisfying feeling of a well aimed snipe - something that we unfortunately can't get in parties in XIV since everything and its uncle links.
