    You're either with me or against me !
    I do LOVE this kind of guys it's always funny to watch them.

    Yeah, and who said I didn't? I will stop and wait for cutscene watchers, and I am usually the tank too. I can also hold the opinion that most of the cutscenes are pointless at the same time, and people should expect that not everyone is going to stop and wait for them to watch them.

    Regarding boss-puling while a 1st timer is watching cutscenes;

    It's just incredibly mind-blowing for me that it seems like it such a hard thing to do for some people to act decent, even if the cost of being decent only to wait, at most, a few minutes. Like, shit, just a few minutes at most.

    Like holy hell....

    I have been a main tank for about 9 years, and I have dealt with the Wall to Wall pulling since Heavensward. I have slowly come to HATE wall to wall pulling as all it does is make dungeons trivial. Dungeons have just become quick tomestone/seal farming runs. I very much so hope the SE looks at the older content and decides to make "unreal dungeons" happen.

    I always wait for sprouts to finish the cutscenes. It's just the decent thing to do. And I if I see a sprout watching a cutscene and someone else pulls....I just stand still. I don't try and help...I just let them die. Then when they get all butt hurt and are like "Tank you need to hurry up!" I kindly tell them "No I don't....you need to wait for the first timer to finish the cutscene". It's 50/50 they leave, and I really don't care. Enjoy the penalty. Those are the moments I love being a tank....you're really in control and it's even more fun when people are in a hurrry.

    As for the pulling early and DPS deciding to pull? That's a mixed bag. If I'm with friends I don't really care when I'm the MT. But if I'm with a bunch on randos or 3 sprouts? You can bet your ass I'm not going to let that shit slide.

    It personally drives me nuts when DPS pull or Healers rescue me to go faster. It's not saving any time, and it's annoying.

    There are so many times where a DPS is acting stupid or thinks that they can just start pulling whenever they want. I just stop and watch them panic, and the satisfaction of watching them die just puts a smirk on my face. "What an idiot!" I say to myself. Then I tell the healer don't rez them...let them run back and ponder why DPS shouldn't pull adds without a tank.

    Even when I DPS I ALWAYS wait for the tank. Oh and this rescue thing that healers do....why? Just why? Are you really in that much of a hurry? Rescue just get's my blood boiling when going from pull to pull.

    I have gotten to the point of if I'm in a really BAD dungeon run, a DPS is pulling mobs or gathering running ahead to gather mobs and bring them back. Or I love the healers that just don't....heal. They just spam Holy, or Gravity and can't even toss out a shield or regen...nothing, and even though they told me to pull big, but can't bring themselves to actually heal. "Oh i'll just bene you!...chill out". It literally takes NO effort to toss a regen or aspected benefic. In a group like this we'll get to the last boss...and I'll just leave. I'll take the penalty, and they can sit there and wait for a tank. I have become that petty now with this whole "gogogo" thing. Well they can "gogogo" to hell, and just sit there. I can spend my penalty mining, crafting, play my switch, take the dogs outside, and all the while I will feel great doing it knowing....those morons are probably still waiting on a tank. Feels amazing.

    This behavior is considered griefing and if you told me not to raise a dps because of some ego trip I would likely initiate a vote kick or leave myself depending on the dungeon.

    I will absolutely rescue a tank that isn't pulling enough and slowing the party down. There is no reason for me to heal a tank that is doing single pulls because they simply do not take enough damage to warrant healing. For me to need to heal the tank needs to have pulled at least 2 packs. There is also no reason for me to heal when I could be applying card buffs or dealing damage myself, so I will save my heals for when they feel necessary instead of overhealing.

    I hate to break it to you but I can definitely keep people healed during a boss fight even if there's no tank. Any time you do that the group probably just went ahead and cleared it themselves.

    How do you cope with spending 9 years doing something, only to remain incompetent and intensely insecure about it?
