    Now, lets say Tank feel more comfortable to do w2w because it's how he play the game, it's not against a rule of the game to do it. A player can politely ask to speed up the pace but in the end, a player should not force his own pace on another players. if a player don't like it, he can be asked to be kick or leave or do duty support system.

    In the end, when a party get created, who is leading the team is Tank...Get use to it.



    Pull like a man? So we need 'Man up' to play this game by your own standards? Soo toxin..yikes...
    If you want to pull 3 mobs at a time, there's the trust system for your specific needs. Don't "Force" your snail pace on other people through casual content. DPS can do your job better

    So,you only option is forcing the tank playing by your own standards and if he not he should not join a party? Well, it can be said the same thing to you, don't like the pace, leave or be a tank.

    In the end, none should play the game by others players standers, because they have decided how other should do and play.

    “None should play the game by others standards”……unless it’s me as the tank in which play play by my standards because I’m the leader or something

    Here's my philosophy:
    - If you want to w2w, discuss with your group.
    - If you want to not w2w, discuss with your group.
    - If you want to impose the rhythm or want to not discuss, use the duty support.

    I'm not going to ask the group if they want me to do wall-to-wall pulls when 99% of the time the answer is going to be "yes."

    If the healer wants me to go slower because they're new to their job, I may consider it on more threatening packs in certain levelling dungeons, but it's not the end of the world if they need to throw a GCD heal or two since it's still faster if me and the DPS are AoEing multiple packs.

    I 100% agree! It's a roulette, if you want to run w2w- get with friends, we have the tools for speedy runs like linkshells, friend's lists, etc etc. Don't get upset at some "Expected" norm that people seem to deem "the best thing ever!"

    I'll start giving my coms to tanks when they don't w2w. I've been giving them to DPS because of this mindset lately.

    Ironic statement. Do the community a favor and be a real tank. I can play reaper and wall to wall pull with a healer just comfy. Why cant you?
