tanks not using cooldowns?

[Adire]

I dislike most duty finder tanks. They're not receptive to constructive, politely worded critiques, they don't use good judgement, and their situational awareness is often poor. The solution is to become a tank yourself and never deal with their ilk again. Want to be a big man in your free company? Popular with strangers? Want to get your daily dungeons knocked out of the way at a pace of your choosing? Want to get a group for the most popular content at a speed that'll make you say "wuuuuuut?" Choose the path of the meat shield. Jooooooin us.

Then you get to deal with bad DPS and can't compensate much for it anymore with the recent nerfs.

The only thing worse than a tank that doesn't pop cooldowns is 2 DPS who have no clue what they're doing.

This is the main reason I play DPS over a Tank in FFXIV. Most content can be cleared with a terrible tank and often quickly. Bad dps will either slow content way down or make it impossible.

Tanks not using Cooldowns on trash annoy me as much as ranged dps not using LBs on trash. Very few bosses in dungeons do anything really dangerous to the tank but large groups of little critters is pretty deadly and the most common reason for wipes in my experience.
