    I'm pure VIT. I usually have no issues.

    One day, a BLM apparently popped Raging Stikes and charged whatever ability he was charging. I didn't notice until AFTER my Shield Lob. Plan was to Lob, run to next group, then do what I do for control. Sadly, whatever the BLM did after my Shield Lob caused the other two mobs to run at him after I had already ran forward to snatch the others. That said, it is NOT always the tank fault even if he is or isn't in STR gear.

    On a separate note, I saw a group for Thordan Ex who needed one more tank. He had GLD and PLD locked out. His PF iLv was for 195. I asked if my iLv201 PLD can join, and he said, "plds suck git gud bro". I still have it screen captured. They never filled after re-uping the PF three more times due to PF timer.
