    "Pull Everything" in Dungeon Parties

    I understand the mentality, but if somebody's not comfortable give them their god damn space and go with their flow instead of whining about "Oh this is taking too long, so I'll pull for you".

    It's starting to get on my nerves because not only once, but twice I've seen this and I'm not even at the supposed end-game content yet. Give Tanks a break when they're trying to learn the layout before asking them to do big pulls all the time like you do in Heavensward end-game content.

    Well just leave them with the lowest hp ever before you provoke it back or just let them die before healer get the aggro. If it's the healer that pull, I'll just leave them with low hp before I grab the mobs. XD

    Had a similar issue with someone pulling all the mobs even bosses in a dungeon. So i let him/her the final boss cause i knew it was going to happen and let them tank. Believe me they learned it was hilarious too cause the healer and me where in discord so it was well planned lol

    If anyone pulls for me as tank I let them tank it and die then I will pick it up. Enough deaths they will learn not to pull for you.

    Better idea, do some AoE in DPS stance then Shirk the offending DPS! Gets the point across quite nicely~

    Oh My God! I always do that too! it's like the best feeling when you see them running around like headless chicken to their death
    They say the queue for DPS is absurdly long, yet they do not appreciate when they get a tank to do dungeon... geez! Seems they really enjoy queing for another 30 min or more lel...

    If I go into a dungeon with my friend as a healer, I trust them to heal me through whatever stuff I pull. I also try to "stress" them out by pulling a lot. But they are a WHM, and a friend. If I mess up and wipe us, we laugh and reduce the pulls. I do not do that with random group. I pull a standard size group at the beginning, judge how the team gets through it, and then adjust from there. No reason to speed run if everyone wipes, because then its not really a speed run, is it? And yes, if I warn you and you pull things again... you pull it, you tank it.

    Had a Scholar pulling extra mobs in Darkhold when I purposely avoid pulling too much where the toads are since so many times I have, people (including me sometimes) get pushed off. Since she kept doing it, I grabbed everything where the Skeletons patrol. Despite rotating through every CD I had, she just couldn't handle all the damage and we wiped. She stopped pulling for me after that.

    Death is a great teacher sometimes.

    Mine is opposite

    I try not to pull everything if it's a scholar and I will pull everything if it's a white mage because they have no excuse lol

    People just aren't patient. If I'm in something, and there's someone new, and there's a mechanic they need to know, I want to stop for a moment to tell them.

    AND THEN THE DPS PULLS SHINRYU OIHUJAWEFKJMGNWO"EPOWEJ

    And people wonder why some people think "the fight is hard."

    As for other content, yeah, the same stuff. I once turned off Defiance after telling a BLM that he was tanking if he pulled again, and he did just that. Petty? Yes. Yes I am. People need to realize that usually, a good tank knows what they can pull that won't get the group murdered. A bad tank, on the other hand, will tell the healer to deal with it when THEY'RE BARELY ABLE TO ENTER BRAYFLOX'S LONGSTOP HGOIAWJOISER:EHRFUIOESWHRF

    I've had some things to get off my chest for a few years now.
