    Some people don't seen to realize that tanking is not faceroll in this game. There are situations where as a DPS you should actually stop and think a little before going all out on every target. If tank pulls a group of 4 and starts off by using aoe abilities, the DPS are likely to pull threat on main target. If the tank starts off using single target abilities, the healer is likely to pull threat from all the other ones. With a 2.5 second GCD and no consistent taunt it is difficult to gather up targets once they break off from initial pull, don't assume tanks can just instantly pull enemies off of you.

    Maybe if DPS would learn how to assist the tanks!

    Don't attack mobs the tank isn't currently tanking, because many of times the mages are sleeping/mezzing them too make it a might be easier, especially with 3-4+ mobs. Also every mob in dungeons have letters after their names from A~Z which usually goes through 3 sets before completing the dungeon, anyroad, surely everyone knows the alphabet, so follow it! As a tank I follow the letters in order, thus if you do the same you'll be assisting the tank, the healer can focus on keeping only me alive, mobs die faster and everything goes smoothly!

    Seriously how difficult is that to understand, am looking at you DPS~!?!?!?
