As long as the group is good, the mobs melt.

Wall to wall is optimal, chain pulling is not, it serves only to be an annoyance to other party members.
Why wouldn't they get hp/mp ticks?
Why wouldn't their skill be off cd?

If you have 10 mobs in a wall-wall and can only tank 9 or its a wipe, do you tank 9 then wait for all CDs, health, and mana, before you pull the last pack?

If you cleave a 9 pack to 2-3 mobs with 10% health, does your IQ drop 10 points if you pull the last pack with 3 mobs, mind you I didn't say always do this, I said to watch healers mana. So explain to me again how optimal waiting for full mana and health for 1 pack is.
