edit:


this won't be enough if you ll meet another equal skilled player at all... I lately started to use lp potions... cause it became more or less common that I see 8-9/10 mobs on my enmity bar after every 2nd buffed Deathflare... this is embarrassing... so no pls do not spread this off-tankstance mentality : /
Here's the problem with your comparison; you want people to get better in PoTD when it's probably one of the worst ways to level, if they haven't figured out tank stance or how to tank properly there's not much you can do about that it's a player base problem. I don't recommend to newbies to take of their tank stance that comes with experience and learning the job inside and out if i'm healing and a tanks in tank stance doing pulls I don't care, if i'm tanking I care because i'm the one doing the pulls, the extra DPS etc. You can also do PoTD 1-100 without a tank or even solo so it wasn't made for tanks per se, not to mention players can manipulate floors/mobs/buffs to make up for lack of tank with DPS shocking I know.

About your spreading this "nonsense" look at Syzzles post she did a gigantic pull without Grit on and did she lose threat? No. I even stated that I had a Smn in ilvl 268-269 who had an ilvl 270 book and fully melded Deathflaring and I didn't lose threat once. So you must be doing something wrong so don't blame it on the lack of emnity I stated i've had 0 issues even with a caster heavy group double SMN/ or SMN/BLM/WHM so I would say that this falls on you.

I will reiterate since you think i'm spouting ALL newbies tanks to take tank stance off, no i'm not this is aimed at 60 content as the good tanks know that you can keep threat out of stance 100% of the time this goes for dungeons, raids, EX primals and Alex Savage, you can tank all of Alex Savage out of tank stance and be fine. It's the majority of tanks haven't learned that they can hold threat without tank stance and honestly if you're not comfortable practice, pull everything with your tank stance on, pop a CD, and then spam your AoE/DPS combo.
