Why pull for the tank and then complain?

True. I was able to manage most except for the council. On open of that fight I have to get aggro on Faye, the hunter really needs to pop misdirect and lay into both bosses to help me establish aggro. Since I get 4x threat for my dps, that alone should settle this fight with aggro. It didn’t multiple times, was really annoying.

The other complication is that I’m running a +6 and I assume timer is the goal. Nobody told me that people didn’t know this dungeon and wanted to go slow. I off healed like a madman to avoid bursting wipes, still got a few, because dps just kept AoE up… and note that others in this group had +12 experience… so I dunno.

Try to kick him from the group. The end.

Wait 3 minutes and kick him.

Just because one person has levelled 15 times and can go turbo mode does not mean we all can or want to.

As a tank on my DK I have to say - you go at your pace, if someone runs ahead and pulls for you make sure you don’t get any aggro and continue after they have died, if they pull additional mobs when you are tanking and you don’t feel it is within your pace, wait 3 minutes from the start and kick them.

[WHY PULL FOR THE TANK AND THEN COMPLAIN?]

Why?
Because DPS players dont really know how the game works even when they think they do.
Pulling for the tank puts more stress on the healer and his mana.
I know this factually because I run all three roles fairly frequently.

When the tank pulls and keeps aggro my mana barely gets used and I can even DPS and make the run go faster.
when idiot DPS players start pulling for the tank, they arent nearly as easy to keep alive…which is why ive just decided to let them die and then vote to kick from now on. It causes me to burn thru mana, which means I now have to stop and eat since I already burned thru a potion.

So now they are COSTING us time instead of saving any, which affects the entire team, eating our personal game time and possibly causing unnecessary deaths and wipes.
All because some joker DPS cant just play the game the way its designed to be played.

Do yourself a favor. when DPS pulls…DONT heal them. Let them die and tell them if they are doing the tanks job they get no heals.
If they continue, vote to kick.
If they vote to kick you…dont stress it. Your queue will be far less than DPS is.

Either kick the guy or leave…

This is tank’s advantage in our current game…use it :+1:

Can’t imagine why–I mean, my Outlaw rogue doesn’t even get an AoE ability until level 63 I think?
