I'm an experienced and a very good tank in another mmo, but it was still a learning experience for FFXIV glad/pally tanking here. It was a bit of a shock to find no taunt or aggro leech skill here, but the extra work is making it fun and a new tanking experience.

I wouldn't even say I was a great tank here, but am approaching good, I think, and still improving.

But the point is, while I appreciate and largely agree with the OP, no amount of quest training really does the trick. In the end it just needs a lot of dungeon running and urge to constantly improve. But such is always the case when tanks and heals need to make the transition from solo to group play.
