DPS: “Pull bigger”
Me: "You know we’re going to wipe if I pull bigger?
DPS: “No we won’t”
I pull big. 1 stack of bursting. 2 stacks of bursting. 3 stacks. 4 stacks. 5 stacks. 6 stacks, they keep renewing it. 7 stacks. Renewing to 8 stacks. People dying.
“OMG TANK WHAT ARE YOU DOING?”
NO, DPS, WHAT ARE -YOU- DOING? You’re renewing the bursting and wiping us because I did what you told me to do, lmao.
well there is nothing to solve, other than a person who want to tank. there are certain pro and cons with tanking, and you have to deal with it as it is. is it for you or not. thats up to you.
But its sad to see some ppl holding them self back because they are scared. Just do it!
tbh, im not scared, im just annoyed how clunky everything besides the mechanical part of the actual tanking is though. i think thats holding more people back from tanking than anything else.
I’m curious why do you think it’s lacklustre? I agree it is, just wondering why you think it is? Do you think blizzard could or should try to alter the fact that it’s lacklustre?
For me it’s a couple of things, levelling experience mostly has put me off because far too many times I’ve had DPS who pull packs ahead of me and go ‘Tank you’re so !!!’ when I have so few defence abilities or aggro generating ones.
Then there’s the ones that act like they’ve got ants in their pants or have somewhere to be so they go ‘Hurry up and pull big!’ then get pissy when it’s ‘taking too long’
I know the DPS who pull ahead point has been brought up before but I just wanted to get my bit out
well the rewards are bad, the vault is rng, if u can do 15s for max reward why do lower for worse reward?.. imagine getting wep in vault from a + 2 or what ever when u knew u could have done a 15 as an example, next time u get wep gonna take close to year? lol
I have to say that healing is so much fun (subjective) did my KSM s2 as holy priest and I did not stumble over many toxic encounter on my journey!
Tanking on the other hand is pain when running with pug’s. They always set all the pressure on tank to guide everyone to their maximum performance! If it was more “give and take” I would tank mythic plus since the job is really funny, specifically as protection paladin (freaking Thor with the shield and hammer)!
it so bad, surely blood tanks should be the highest in Damage output as they have a 2h and were known to be blood dps in lich king before they gutted us into tank only
Mythic Plus is the moment i stopped tanking.
I like tanking Raids,
I like tanking dungeons
I like tanking Mythics
But M+, The pressure, the speed, the weird fast route sneaky sneaky stuff
i hate it.
If the timer is removed from M+ i might go back to tanking.
I would NEVER tank a pug, the pug comunity is toxic as heck
