Been leveling as a priest, between demon hunters, paladins, warriors, and sometimes bears… how is it possible to keep up with them?
I have feathers, but I’m constantly way behind everyone, people go nuts and pull everything but I just can’t get there in time.
It is a group thing where the fast people should wait - but that doesn’t always happen.
EDIT: don’t slow tanks down. They’re fun and getting to emergencies quickly is fun.
Edit: allow people to move as quickly as the tanks do. I don’t want to go slow, been doing dungeons in 2-3m and it’s fun - it’s the running to a group without any gameplay other than pressing W is lame

You’re either dealing with the DPS players who are rolling Tank spec for fast dungeon queues and won’t be playing that spec once mythic and + drops, or these are veteran tank players who have pushing high keys for the past several expansions.
My advice to you since we are only playing normal dungeons right now, focus less on casting/healing (lets face it, unless a player is really dumb, no one is gonna die in normal dungeons) and just follow.
The tank doesn’t expect much from healers in normal dungeons other than to help dps when they can, their goal is to control the fight. In normal that means rounding up as many mobs as they can as fast as they can for AoE madness! Enjoy the carry

I will say, Guardian Druids are very strong right now.

Yeah, between 78 and 80 they’d get so far ahead and pull everything that I’d just get there when I got there and end up tanking 3/4 of stuff regardless. Was fun to keep the group going but still stress trying to keep up with impossibly fast tanks
Had some people say “ive never had any group struggle here,” when everyone was 78-79 so scaling was no longer skewed hyper easy.
It was frustrating in MOP remix - the ultra speed of folks and was hoping to be free of that - but it’s just as bad now.
Will sort itself out in a few weeks when doing real content, just wish the base actual content was not in the state it’s in.

Blizz should just add a “slow, chill people” queue that limits everyone to RP walk speed only for the folks who want to see the sights.

I don’t want to “see the sights”
I just don’t want to play “chase the edgy zoom zoom vengeance DH”

Keep in mind it’s the general WoW public/pugs that “created” or “demanded” this meta
Whenever I’ve been even a little slow while playing a tank, pugs have went ahead and pulled “for me”… sometimes you even get passive-agressive “…” or “zzz” comments in the chat if pug teammates feel you aren’t going fast enough
The pug world has spoken, and very clearly: anything that isn’t a giga-pull and chaining trash pack into trash pack into trash pack will not be tolerated

Tomato tomato, you want a slower pace. This would accomplish your goal since actually looking for people who want to play that way is apparently unacceptable for so many people. 
It’s normal. mainly they don’t need healer. they can cruise in… just wait for next week when Heroic comes in and Mythic+
That’s called follower dungeons and story mode raids, so they exist for those who want it.
Well apparently that’s not enough because we keep getting these threads.

I agree, tanks need to be slower much slower. They control the pace of the group, and they should not be going this fast.

Then that’s a ‘them’ problem not a game issue or a ‘us’ (us being the normal players) issue either.
I’m just trying to offer solutions for everyone to have fun!
I’m sure the slowpoke queue wouldn’t be hours long at all.
FOLLOWER. DUNGEONS. LET. YOU. DECIDE. THE. PACE.
Why is this so hard for people to understand?

Would be an interesting study if Blizzard added the PoE equivalent of Ruthless to WoW lol.
It’s not hard but FDs don’t get the random queue bonus or go as fast as even slower groups do.

Some people should just learn to sit back and get carried
I don’t understand why people whine when a group of competent players is saving them time

I went slow in a group once because the healer asked me to and guess what? They got kicked because the group didn’t want a slow run and told her she needed to learn to keep up. I personally don’t like going slow, but if i take it slow and people start having a problem with it i will pick it up and go faster.
Yes, which is why I suggested a way for only slow preference people to queue together in the first place.
