    I'm a bad tank

    I have a question trying to learn to tank is bad... I was trying to tank in the new raid the other day and some to same I'm the most nice's way was a angry person got mad at me for not tanking right. I was trying to ask questions but he guy/girl would not stop pulling and continue to tell because I didn't do as they said.

    Person: ffs if you don't know how to tank don't be a pld"

    Like to tank but it was my first time doing raid fights where I had to off tank and tank swap, I just had some questions to ask the main tank but they just kept pulling and getting mad at me.it make me not wanna do new content with random people...
    Sorry I'm a bad tank but I do like learning new things.

    PS.i beat it later with a friend who took the time to stop and tell me the part I was having a problem with

    So... did you have a question? Was there something you did wrong? Was the guy just a prick? I feel like I missed something here.

    Don't worry about people who get mad at you. ESPECIALLY if you are just starting off. Keep practicing and eventually you will improve. It's good that you have questions and are trying to learn. You'll get there some day.

    If you want, you can try looking at videos on YouTube about how other tanks handle certain fights.

    And if you have any specific questions about how to tank, just ask them here and I'm sure a lot of friendly people will help you out.

    You know what? Not everyone hits level 60 or 70 and immediately knows everything about their job. Some people have a harder time then others, ESPECIALLY if this is their first MMO. If you can tell people are having trouble with their class, it doesn't help one bit to lash out and tell them they are bad. Especially because it doesn't take much to recognize what they are doing wrong and give them tips on how they might improve.
