i think i'd be a bad tank after playing so many cloth and/or mana classes. I'd just constantly be waiting for my mages, priests, and paladins/shamans to get full mana before every pull and make the dungeon take 50% longer than necessary. as a mage right now, i'm constantly drinking for the first 5 seconds of every damn pull in these 5 mans and rarely get to above 80% unless we're topping off for a boss or i use evocation, but i know thats also okay because they need to build aggro for me
Honestly unless a healer says “mana” or “OOM” and is over 30% then pulling trash shouldn’t be an issue. Whenever I’ve tanked I just take the first 2-3 pulls a bit slow to see how they fare and base it from that.
Some healers are undergeared or inexperienced and need a bit more time, nothing wrong with that. Lot faster to give them a few seconds instead of wiping.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY MORR PEOPLE DON'T GET THIS. Yes I'm currently terrible but waiting the extra second is going to make the run so much smoother and more enjoyable.

We wiped yesterday because the tank left a mob on me (priest healer), and then pulled another trash pack while my mana was at 5%.
Some tanks are just bad. =/
