I gotta get this out of my system or imma lose my mind

it doesnt matter that your LV 100 in everything.
it doesnt matter that you have the mentor role
if you go out of your way to force bigger pulls just cause your impatient you are annoying

if you want wall pulls then either just ask lie a decent person or be tank yourself

on a completely unrelated and more positive note, finished EW two days ago! soo good and now i wait for the third peep of my group to catch up so we can all go into DT together!

This sounds like a you problem, my guy. If you can't do full pulls in current dungeons that are basically a hallway of two different packs - the bare minimum of being a tank, then you're the one who shouldn't be tanking. Duty Support exists for people like you who need to take the full 90 minutes in the dungeon when it shouldn't even take 15 minutes.

i aint trying ta take 90 mins, im trying to just enjoy leveling my DRK and not rush through to a endpoint. it aint like im taking one pull at a time if i can im doin at least two or three waves of baddies at a time but suddenly having the 5 other enemies down the hall get dragged in cause a testy PCT cant slow down and making me scramble around big ah AOEs that i wanted to deal with when i didnt have 15 other mobs biting at me aint enjoyable.

i dont play XIV to run through as fast as possible. im just tryin ta enjoy the game how id like

What if the other 3 want to go as fast as possible? Why should your need to go slower trump the other 3 players to want to go faster? The default here is to pull wall to wall. It not only makes it more interesting as a tank, but more interesting as a healer and DPS as well.

Want to go slower, use trusts, or, ask the party if it is ok.

So it's cool that I enjoy leveling my ninja by just doing auto attacks because I think they look cool, maybe a mudra here and there for fun? I'm not in any rush anyway.

The standard is indeed wall to wall, and it's so easy even with DRK these days thanks to the great patches finally coming around and giving them some love, that it can be done really early on.
Do not encourage mediocrity, be better. Nobody needs to ask for a wall to wall, it just happens. If you want party members who won't complain, bring trusts or grab 3 friends who don't mind slow pulls.

[Espon]

Maybe you should play with trusts or squadrons if you want to go at your own pace. You're not the main character just because you're the tank, there's 3 other people in the dungeon with you, and it's not like trash mobs in dungeon are difficult to begin with.

[Reinhardt_Azureheim]

The play standard is wall to wall pulls unless you or your healer literally cannot handle it (undergeared or other legitimate things holding you back - you wanting to relax isn't it).

Since you are the one complaining about the standard, it is *your* responsibility to apologize in advance that you may be inexperienced still and would like to pull for less until you are more confident.

Sincerely - a fellow tank.

[Canadane]

If you are in a level cap dungeon (50, 60, etc), your ilvl will almost always outweigh the dungeon itself and it is an insult to both yourself and your party to not pull everything you can.
Leveling dungeons, at least at the lower end can be a bit spicier. But even them at the later end of things when you have most of your kit will be full pullable with ease.

[Mesarthim]

It's a team game whether you like it or not. If you want to relax play with npcs or a likeminded premade.

I personally have met a "you pull you tank" tank before when I was leveling a dps. Healer was onboard but me pulling caused the tank to ragequit along with the other dps that was with him (in tam tara NORMAL, i.e. a dungeon that doesn't matter). Don't grief people by not doing the role you signed up for.

People these days have too fragile of an ego. If you have an issue you could ask them, otherwise if they say no to your request you can put up with it or leave. I'm just being blunt here.
