Is your Sprint ability broken or something?

[Malmstrom]

Tanks - "Don't run ahead of me!" USE SPRINT AND GO, THEN.

Healers - "Don't run so far ahead!" USE SPRINT AND GO, THEN.

DPS - "derpa derpa derpa, we'll dps when we eventually get there."

I feel like the majority of players forget they have Sprint in dungeons. As a healer I hate watching tanks pull wall to wall but get their butts kicked from one end of the other because they didn't push the Sprint button, and as a tank I hate it because I sprint ahead and end up having to pop way more cooldowns because my group is still a hundred yalms away skipping through fields and picking flowers on their way to the next pack of enemies, and as DPS? OH MY GOSH EVERYONE IS SLOW HURRY UP JEEZ.

Mini rant over?

I'm more surprised how many people don't use sprint at all in battle for dodging AoEs more easily, or to get into place for mechanics. It might be due to how sprint used to use TP, though. Maybe some people still just feel an aversion to using it due to that.

I use it all the time if the AoE is large or if I get a late start on moving (or I'm not properly positioned for a Yaten). Being able to sprint in the battle was one of the best changes they made.

As for sprinting other times, I use it if I'm behind and need to catch up or if I'm tanking and want to mitigate rhe damage taken as I grab multiple packs, but I'm not so impatient that I expect others to sprint to keep up with me. I can wait the 5 extra seconds it takes for them to get there. It's not a huge deal.

I use sprint all the time as a healer, but tanks still manage to run far off ahead of me and nearly get themselves killed.

And running ahead of tanks has nothing to do with sprint, just don't run ahead of your tank, whether you or they are using sprint or not.

My sprint always on a cd. Maybe make sprint have a lower cd to it might help some. If tank has there sprint up others might have there's still on cool down. Should ask and make sure everyone has sprint up before using sprint and doing a huge pull.

The party should be syncing their sprint with the tank in a dungeon, not the other way around.

So if the tank doesn't use sprint in combat nobody else should? Oh I didn't know we were playing a different game.

That's not at all what that means, but if thats what you wanna glean from it, sure. I don't personally use sprint in boss fights in dungeons just because there's no mechanic thats not telegraphed for 8 years before it goes off. That's not to say you can't. However, its a minute long cooldown,, so if you're the type of person to moan about the tank getting too far ahead when they're doing big pulls, you should try and plan for sprint to be off cooldown by the time the boss fight is over.

[Iscah]

Sprint might be on cooldown for them.

Also if someone has activated sprint and taken off ahead of you, it is not possible to catch up to them until their sprint runs out - even if you sprint as well, you can only match their pace and stop the gap from getting any bigger.

This too. I use it in battles all the time - I'm unlikely to have it available afterwards.

Major rule of Tanking and DPSing, stay in range of your Healer. Also don't make assumptions about CD status....ever..FWIW I'm healer and nearly always Sprint, but don't expect that
