Prepulling mobs as healer

[ForteNightshade]

the saddest thing about this whole post is that its up to 110 replies (at the time of this post). In most other MMOs this is simply a no-no and the healer (or whoever pulls besides the tank) would be considered an asshole. the post would be flamed and the person posting it would be called all sorts of names until the post is locked by moderators.

but here for whatever reason there is an actual debate about it, with people ACTUALLY agreeing with the original poster.

rethink your point of view ... because you're wrong.

This occurs because trash mobs are so pitifully weak someone besides the tank can easily live pulling more mobs. And in the case of a healer, can tank them just fine themselves. Like I said earlier, you could be 100 ilvls below the recommended and a small pack would still barely even dent a tank.

Not saying I necessarily agree with the OP's approach but this is why some DPS and healers pull.

Maybe this is the biggest problem. I wouldn't have made this thread if those absurdly low damage dungeons didn't exist in first place. Imo they should for sure adjust the syncs or increase the damage for some of the older content to make them worthy of being played in a party. Right now some dungeons can easily be done without a tank, or even without healer (at least for 90% of the dungeon).
