    There's a set of instances that train you. But it's so easy to find dungeon groups as a tank even the most thick headed will eventually learn how to tank properly.

    with all that time typing up what someone else needs to do, you should have just took that same time and wrote some useful tips for a tank who might be looking for some. 1/10

    My advice to be a better tank: Learn to use Stun when your hate is good.
    Especially on bosses, sometimes they try to do the same skill after stun and your next stun will be resisted, BUT you give time to your party to get out from the doomed area :P

    I love doing that... Denied access to raping my party
    You should always try to delay mobs/bosses from hitting your party members. By whatever means.

    the best advice to give to a tank... is learn the dungeon, monster and boss. know everything about them, pattern, way to avoid traps... know everything, never in a game it was as important than here.

    some monster have attack you must avoid, some you must'nt avoid or better you can ignore. but all of this can only get by experience, by try and die and try and die...
    our jobs as tank, is to know where lie danger and how make this danger stay far of our group.

    after playing MRD to level 30 and GLD to level 20, i found that tanking with GLD is harder
    it's because it lacks aoe damage, while MRD can gather mobs easier with the overpower
    flash's enmity is very poor compared to overpower which do damage + increased enmity

    Its not that hard with GLD/PLD. A flash every few GCD's and your golden.
