The AI healers DPS in command missions so I brought it up.

As for my character being listed as a tank; my main class is a WHM first and foremost, so I have a lot of experience when it comes to putting out both healing and damage. Unless you have a tank with paper armor and/or pulling huge groups, you're going to have a lot of downtime. And even then, Holy provides loads of mitigation in the form of stuns.

I could go on and on but suffice to say you're not using your skillset properly if you aren't providing damage, akin to a monk not using positionals, a pld not using rampart, an AST not using cards. If it's a case of "I do not have the ability to handle this", then my condolences. If it's a case (most likely) of "I don't want to", it's a shame.

Sorry, but I don't want to discuss that here. Save your arguments about that matter for that topic, OK?

Not making unnecessary posts dragging this derailment on would be a good start too. Cheers.

Back on topic:

I finally got the defensive AI unlocked for my GLD. I could swear that his single target agro seems better despite him losing quite a lot of DPS from switching out Independent IV. Unsurprisingly, it makes absolutely no difference to his eagerness to go charging down corpses on the King but the rest of the dungeon definitely felt better overall. Once I catch him up with a few more rank ups I'll be putting the CNJ back on Independent I think.

Another issue I am noticing tho, he will frequently go 4 or 5 GCDs without doing a single flash which is naturally far too long. A couple of simple tweaks such as the CNJ opening with Stone instead of Aero, and the GLD hitting flash a couple of times on the pull with more than one mob would likely make a huge huge difference.

Beyond that, I think SE need to suck it up and flag certain mobs to be ignored by the Tank AI, pretty much any other solution is going to take up a lot more server CPU cycles than I suspect SE will be willing to give.
