Tank Training

[Steeled]

Alright^^, I'm not hugely big on reading quest text x.x.

But I do know how to tank. In either case, a lot of people aren't learning ; ; and it's punishing the groups.

The problem here is that there is a limit to the tanking training SE can shove down your throat. As with every training, there is a huge part that depends on the trainee.. I'm usually a tank, so when I hop on my cnj and see the tank doing something really wrong I try to teach him the proper way to do things (while not being an ass). Some people out there.. I don't know if they are either uncapable or unwilling to learn. But the fact is, no matter what SE makes them do, what you tell them to do, they will still facepull every. single. time.

Also, there's the issue with Flash. You have a quest that teaches you that Flash actually allows you to grab AoE aggro. You NEED to use it because the NPC will take a beating otherwise. Apparently when some people finish the quest the knowledge they acquired just vanishes from their minds..

More quests to teach the players are useless if the players are not willing to be taught..

Pretty much this. I've met so many stubborn players. Another thing that doesn't help is that Fate grinding is the easiest way to level. You aren't going to learn proper tanking from something that rewards zerging and mass chaos.
