Tanks are a rare commodity. So if you do find one, there is no harm in treating them with some respect and care.
If a Tank is struggling to perform a task, guide them, don’t start berating them, this will only put them under more pressure and stress making them more prone to mistakes.
Treat Tanks better then I guarantee you will see many more players playing Tanks.
Because we tanks get treated like poo and always get snarky remarks “oh you didn’t do X what an idiot” “wow noob you didn’t move the boss I’m a main tank I know better” and all the disrespectful insults and blame shifting
If you do that in my group either you’re out or I am.
see it from their point of view, tanking and healing is by far harder than dps. and then some dps whos job is just to attack suddenly critizise them. its not fun for them.
You are the kind of person why I don’t tank or heal anymore got tired of the high and mighty douchebag attitude from people who act always like their pants are full of ants and on fire in dungeons.
I stopped playing Tank after Pandaria. I just got tired of toxicity and abuse, oh and not to mention impatient DPS who start pulling extra mobs just because they are on top of the table. The Tank knows what he/she can handle, don’t need the DPS to pull more just because you are in a rush. Looking at you Hunters and Rogues with your threat redirections.
I had a healer priest like that yesterday in +0, kept saying go go ! And kept pulling ahead of me. I was about to leave several times but wanted the dungeon for the weekly
Worse is when you get a party of friends or guild. Then they all start pressuring you.
I remember once I got annoyed so I start a kick process on one of them and gave the reason s**t tank. The satisfaction of watching them kick one of their own was awesome and then the kick cool-down was icing on the cake.
WHAT??!!! OH MY GOD!!! ARE YOU SAYING SOMEONE WHO DIDN’T AGREE WITH YOUR PULLS TRIED TO COMUNICATE AND MADE THE DUNGEON FASTER CAUSING NO WIPES?!! REPORT HIM NOW FOR DISOBEDIENCE!!!
You said he was saying “go go” I assumed you are smart enough to understand what that means (apparently not though). You didn’t reply anything to him? No, crying here is better.
No idea why do you assume I get kicked, you must have superpowers. And yeah call me toxic, that makes you better
