also one time I was lvling cnj at haukke manor and I kept wondering- why in the world was it so impossible to heal the tank? I kept healing and healing and the tank would die, or it would be a close shave on even trash mobs! Not only that, but every single time I healed, I'd get at least one enemy (usually 2) after me while the tank seemed to be concentrating on dps or something, because he wouldnt pull them off until after the others were dead.
I looked at his gear and it turned out he was decked in 1/4 DoM gear, 1/4 DPS gear, and 1/2 crafter gear. And it was all pretty low even for Haukke
No matter what I did, he'd be dead or almost dead. When he inevitably ate it in the middle of the final boss, the arcanist in the group summoned topaz carbuncle, which ended up being a waaaay better tank. I remember it fondly now as the legend of the tank from hell, but it wasn't all that funny at the time.
