Hi,

I just wanted to ask about something that happened to me yesterday since I don't have a clear opinion on this (although I strongly believe I was not at fault, but I'm open to a dialogue).

So, I qued up for Expert Roulette, got Saint Mocianne's Arboretum. There is this message people are new (I think 1 or both dds) to the content (we are like 1 week into the patch, so that's fine right). The tank does a huge 1st pull without saying a thing. I tell him to at least warn us he is going to do such a big pull, mostly because people are new to the content and even though he's been farming it likely for quite some time already, it takes a while for new people to get a good grasp on the new content. The next pull is just as big, however this time he writes "big pulling". Half way through I realize we don't have the damage (Sch, Pld, Drg, Nin) to finish it before I run out of MPs. So I decide to take a risk and apply my dots + bane. Unfortunately, my lustrate is like 1 sec late and the tank dies. He leaves immediately. We wait for at least 10 more minutes before abandoning the duty.

What would your approach be in this situation? I'm not that bothered by this, I'm just curious as there might be a better way of handling similar situation.

Also, I noticed that the "healer should dps" thing (which I don't mind, I quite like it) got to the point that I feel I share the responsibility for the overall damage done and the healing at the same time. Is that just me or does anyone else feel the same?

Thanks for reply.
