    I am finding this to be true. A skilled/mastered tank lets me perform my job as I did in HW and ARR before it, even when multi pulling. And a good tank will immediately acknowledge "I should not have pulled that much" or will test the group first with smaller pulls before going ham. A still learning/less experienced tank makes me have to spam the crap out of my heals just to keep them at 50%. Doable, but far more common at the moment. The bad tanks, however, are now more blatantly obvious than they ever were because they go from 100% to near 0% in 5 seconds or less.

    It goes both ways though. Some healers are still learning they can't do this or that anymore, and some haven't learned how to properly used the new and adjusted skills (and some skills on both ends are just....not good), so maybe with time it'll even out.
