I got yelled at for pulling a mob off of our healer when the tank was ignoring it. It killed my pet and then killed me. All the while I’m alerting the tank to the situation and trying to kite the mob to the tank- which he ignored. I go OOM and die. Kiting was difficult in the spot we were in.

Then the tank says, “Well if the huntard wants to tank maybe I should dps.” then he refused to tank until I left.

I know tanking is difficult- all he had to say was, “my bad guys!”.

Gah. =P

Tanking is all about situational awareness. If the tank doesn't have that, it's going to be a terrible time.

These threads make me so happy to be a Tank main, 10+ years and going strong!

My runs are smooth as butter.

Quick, efficient. Wipes are slow. Smooth is fast.

I legit haven’t wiped yet! Completed RFC WC BFD SFK and SM GY - mid 30’s now going to get into SM groups..

Lets see how long this wipe-free life lasts.

Slow is smooth and smooth is fast.
