you could all just play tank yourself in trivial content
most ppl just want to be done with this fast, easy lvling and now on timewalking hc raid chest…thats all
if u arent in danger just pull more

More like people on their way to level and not been there or know what to target, what to interrupt, nor ave tiem to do it ,since the swarm already moved and the Boss started; a helar only could heal thrugh an amount…
Anyhow, the scenario sadly is not uncommon
As Azula said
They are not tanks
To be a Tank is a responsibility
I feel like it was always a Benny Hill thing.
We literally had that joke going in Vanilla.
They even capped AoE after legion to “prevent” that sort of stuff more.
This is what the community want us to be.
Pulling reasonably because my CDs are not up and people will complain.
Nobody cares about tanks CDs.
Pulling little and you risk key to fail the timer and people yelling at you.
yeah this is pretty much tanking like its used to be.
But this is what m+ promotes. As a tank when pugging youre damned if you do and damned if you dont do this.
Go fast and people will complain about their rotation. Go slow and people will complain about needing to rush for the timer
As a tank in leveling or tw dungeons, you ll run into problems no matter what you do:
- pull small, and the rest of your team will start pulling for you
- pull big, and people will pull aggro cause they cant wait till everything is grouped up
I usually pull at a pace I think the group can handle. If people think they need to pull more, or start dpsing before I even get to a pack, thats their problem.

100% agree. Tanks don’t really do the job they’re intended to do any more. Most of the time they’re already soloing the boss, whilst the rest of the party is clearing up the trash they left behind
there’s another…
i forget the dungeon name, the one with e big npc after the 1st boss that cleans out the mobs after him
tank runs in and tries to solo all the mobs, nearly dies
“let the big guy go first”
kicked
That sounds like Blackrock Caverns.

Sadly, this is true. I remember too well from my tanking days.
God, I hate the lie embedded in “pulling for you”.
It really has little to do with pulling small, or pulling slow. However much you pull, unless you pull way too much, some psychological or neurological deficiency in some people just makes them want to pull more.
