if there is a group consensus among four people in the group about how to play, which is slower paced, then yes, it is toxic for you to try to force your playstyle on the other four people…
how would you know there is no reason? did you ask anyone? or did you just complain about it?
im just explaining how you are being toxic… it’s quite easy because you are being very toxic in a very blatant manner.
think about it this way: the highest key you have ever tanked is a 5 on your DK… how would you feel if you jumped into a 10 for the first time and wanted to take things slow because you aren’t used to being hit so hard by +10 level mobs and then someone was complaining that you have no reason to go slow because +10s are easy content?
since you’re learning, it would justifiable for you to want to pull one pack at a time to learn how much you can handle.
I would be okay with that, because by the time I’m doing 10s, it’s expected that I have a solid understanding of my class and role. They would be making a valid point. I also have the mental fortitude to appropriately deal with someone who thinks negativity of me.
I find the opposite. Once they get into a safe zone of low and slow, they tend to have problems breaking out of it.
I think the issue with your scenario is that someone would do such a huge jump with no prior experience when the mode doesn’t require you to do such a huge jump.
If someone goes into a 10 for the first time never having tanked above a +5, that’s the problem. Going slow because of it is just icing on the cake.
Don’t go into situations where you’re clearly in above your head.
See you’re not understanding the context of this post. The OP is, in a very toxic manner, requesting that every tank goes Lightning fast at all times, without exception.
So OP has stated that they have never done a key above a +5. So I asked OP how they would feel if they jumped into a +10 and someone was berating OP for tanking slowly.
The increase between a five and a ten key is probably the amount of difficulty increase from tanking mobs while questing and tanking mobs/bosses in a normal dungeon.
That’s how new players start the game. They first level as a tank spec and then jump into normals. It’s understandable if they want to go slower while learning
People like OP are just toxic and are the reason why new players don’t usually continue tanking after their first dungeon.
