    Getting Kicked as a Tank from Dungeons for Power Pulls! No more for me!

    So after leveling my Dark Knight and Warrior to 70, over the past 2 weeks since the launch of SB I have been kicked from leveling duty finders constantly with being synced down to max stats on gear with healers in premade groups kicking me because they are too newbish to read on how in SB tanks are now taking more damage and healers had their heals reduced!

    Over the past week alone I have counted 20 times in which I ask prior to dungeons if they can handle these type of pulls, them saying yes then come to find out that they cant and they blame me while I am rotating my CD correctly and using all my defense abilities correctly that ends up them kicking me! Now there are times in which I do human error, but nowhere near the 3-4 times I have been kicked to say it was always my fault when they clearly stated they could handle it.

    So bottomline, for all you Healers out there wanting or claiming to be able to handle Power Pulls....if you end up in a dungeon with me.....its not going to happen! You can thank all the players that soured that for me since it comes down to them not being able to do something basic like read on what changes came to SB with them having the idea we are still in HW! Sad....so very sad!

    *EDIT* After viewing the posts below I came to realize I accidently put 20 times which was the number times I asked if they were good with power pulls...but actually being kicked only occurred around 3-4 times in the past 2 weeks. My apologizes for not clarifying that!

    Doing the biggest possible pulls in leveling dungeons is stupid anyway

    Boi if you got kicked for the same thing in over 20 duties I strongly suggest you think hard on whatever the hell it is you're doing

    As I'm sure you are well aware, it takes more than one person to be able to kick a player from a duty, so in all those instances there were at least two people agreeing they'd be better off without you tanking.

    I guess you missed the part in which I state that it only happens in premade qued groups.....I pretty sure I wrote that....yup I did!

    I have to say that this does sound odd - a tank getting kicked is a rare enough event, let alone with such frequency after single mistakes.

    But never mind that. Are there chat logs (hide the names)? I love a good secondhand argument.

    If you're kicked multiple times in a relatively short timespan then you are the problem

    I queue'd last night for expert but on the wrong job (healer), thinking im on my RDM, yes it was late. Anyways, tank asks me if we can do big pulls, and I responded that I don't know, since I just got to 70 (only ilvl 281) about 5 minutes ago, but I am willing to try. We pulled the first big and nobody died, tank asked me if I felt comfortable. Now that's special treatment nobody needs that, however I did appreciated that the tank actually cared, and was even willing to do smaller pulls if I weren't happy with it.

    Reason I am saying this, it does go both ways, if you ask the healer and they answer with yes, but then you find out after the first pull or the second, that they might struggle, well slow down your horses, especially in leveling roulette's. Same goes for the healer, that need to speak up if something is going not the right way, or try achieving to get better if that was the problem. Again nobody needs to treat anybody as the tank did to me last night, but working as a team, specially healers & tanks can make runs much more fun. At least you won't get kicked 20 more times lol.

    If you got kicked once or twice, then the issue can be anything, but if its happening all the time, then the fault is most likely yours. Pulling big groups in a leveling dungeon where players are learning their classes or the game is wrong. Atleast you asked if a big pull was OKE, so the fault is not 100% on you.

    My advice, keep speedrunning to level 60+ content.

    I think the tank is being kicked from duties for bad/no use of punctuation.

    Then, if one subject is being kicked very often by random parties, the problem maybe lies within the subject than the rest of the world.
