    People with tank anxiety give me healer anxiety, and as far I know healers are for more needed at the moment.

    So it's okay to scare off unsure or newbie tanks because you feel you're more important? Ignoring the fact that, again, time and time people in this very thread have pointed out that simply talking things out and gently helping struggling tanks often gets them pulling big by the end of any dungeon? As a healer main that's really not a good look.

    Depends on the level. If they're past level 70+, I absolutely want them to be scared away from tanking if they can't play like they're 70+.

    Uhm.. No?

    You can complete a dungeon without a healer (sufficed you have a Paladin as your tank). You CANT complete a dungeon without a tank. (no matter the healer type)

    Again, it's a game and you need to work together with other people in order to succeed. If you don't like the fact that not everyone plays to your level, then you may want to use the Trust System. Because golly gee gosh, I doubt anyone wants to play with you.

    Being a healer doesn't mean you get to be a prick to others. Being a healer doesn't mean you're "superior" to others. You do your job and park your egotism at the door.

    You can. It's mostly only lower level stuff but it's possible. Heck, I even had 2 tanks in gubal who couldn't keep hate off my drg back at 3.0 launch. I essentially tanked the whole dungeon, including bosses. It wasn't easy but I had a healer friend with me.

    Early dungeon's 100% don't need a tank and I remember in HW completing Xelphatol with no tank because he quit prior to first boss and we were able to finish the dungeon before a replacement showed up and wasn't really that bad tbh
