So I was doing Praetorium today for my Main Scenario roulette as WAR. I had a DRK as our second tank with a Hyperconductive Skoffnung to compete with my Padjali Axe. The instance starts out with him lecturing us on how to "properly" sackpull and faceroll through the first encounters after the MNK decides to do it for us (and to be honest, if we're skipping content, does it even matter who does it?)
We make it to the first boss, and I proceed to pull it because I'm a level 50 synced WAR, and I have no OT stance. The DRK, however, decides they wanna MT, and they spend the entire fight blowing all their mp on DA Power Slashes. I explain to them before the next boss that I have no OT stance, and that I will always pull hate off them as a result. Their response?
[13:14](DRK) dont need it here, no worries
Okay, then, so I guess we've reached an understanding? Apparently not, because he spends the next boss, Nero, doing the exact same thing. When the Power Slashes fail, he mixes in a few Unleashes in a desperate bid to get aggro, outright refusing to turn off Grit and accept the role of OT. Same story for Gaius, and same story for Ultima Weapon phase 1 and 2, where he manages to completely deplete ALL HIS MP trying to gain aggro. He even tries Provoking, but so much as one Storm's Eye manages to get my aggro back.Â
By this point, i'm not the only one pissed at him.Â
[13:21](Amanda Bloom) [DRK] should just switch jobs at this point. terrible tank
He continues this charade all the way to the last fight against Lahabrea, where I take aggro and hold it without interruption the whole way through. He ends the instance on next to no mp.
I walk away with several commendations.
