There is absolutely no reason to be single pulling once you're 60+ and that's being generous. I say 60 because you've now had two whole xpacs of content to familiarize yourself with your class, you're not "new" anymore. If you're 60+ talkin bout some "I'm not comfy pulling wall to wall" then that's just laziness. Being first time in a dungeon doesn't matter since it's all the same thing and not like they're mazes save for what? Four dungeons post HW that you can actually "overpull" on (an I use that term loosely). Tanks do the exact same thing whether they're fighting three mobs or 300. At the bare minimum they press four buttons... Two of which are spammed, one a gauge spender, final one is a mit. This is the bare minimum, nothing optimized. If you can single pull you can full pull. IF someone isn't comfy pressing four buttons then it's ok... Tanking isn't for everyone.
Before anyone whines BuT lEvEl SkIp or GnB sTaRtS aT 60... It is the persons job to carry their weight, that means knowing the basics of their class to perform in a TEAM environment. A tanks role is to tank dmg that would otherwise be fatal to others. Single pulls are not fatal, at that point you're just taking up a DPS slot.
For any newer players seeing this that are scared to cause a wipe... It is ok to wipe once or twice. People would rather see you at least try rather than just sit there saying "I can't do it." Don't fall for the fake nice people spewing nonsense, the toxic casuals in the community have a crabs in the bucket mentality where they're bad and hate to see anyone else trying to improve.
At the end of it all, it comes down to respecting peoples time (if you wipe once or twice then slow down but are actively trying to improve I guarantee most people will be a lot more receptive than if one just tries to force a snail run). Carry your weight or again just put forth an effort. Don't make a 9-15 min run take 30+ out of laziness, entitlement, and/or selfishness.
