    This is one of the mean reasons I dont take threads like these serious. Normally you see only one side of the story and everybody sides with the victim.

    I am glad Kakiko shared the link for the other side of the story or else it was again a victim petting theard.

    More often than not, people just don't say anything. Using Shield Lob to pull is fine, but that's really all it should be used for. So if you were using it to attack after you'd already pulled the mob, then no... It wouldn't have been okay.

    I think what's happening here is pretty clear.

    OP is new and has no clue how to play his job properly, refused to get advice and came to complain on the forums because he felt the need to. Which only shows his complete misunderstanding of the game.

    @OP I strongly suggest you take time to read your skills tooltips, watch some guides about your job, because it seems you're absolutly not doing it right.

    People are giving you helpful advice. Take it or expect to see more situations like this crop up. 50+ content takes a basic undsrstanding of your class especially as a tank or a healer.

    By your own admission, you ignored your group's suggestion and judging by what was said in the other thread, they gave you a lot of the information youre getting here.

    No one is expecting perfection from a new player. We are expecting a basic knowledge of how to tank a dungeon by level 50 however.

    To be harsh: you are not new. Your char is level 50, which was the maximum level when this game was released. It means you played quite a few hours.
    At that level I expect a general competence of any player.
    I never expect savage ready performance but I do expect you to know which skill to use in what situation.

    Shield lob should be used for 2 things:
    - maintaining aggro on a target at a distance
    - pulling mobs VERY far away

    Contrary to popular opinion I find it quite idiotic to pull groups with it, even though every tank does it. You are left with 2.5s in which X-1 mobs are free to do as they please while you wait on your GCD, while simple minded DPS thinks "TANK DID STH!! ERMAGAAAWD AOE DAMAGE NAO!!11"

    I much rather pull with Unleash / Flash or Abyssal drain.

    This is untrue. You use shield lob to pull groups from range, at which the 2.5s will be filled with gap closing. If this is too much then CoS is a very valid part of your opener. Keeping hate while pulling with shield lob is not harmful in the slightest if you have a basic grasp of tank rotations
