Pull the boss to where the second set of adds come in. Let the tank pull everythings hate and DPS spams AoE (works best if you have THM). The adds drop like flys and your still focussing dmg on the boss. also, as an added bonus, when the limit break is ready everyone is in one spot, meteor it up and watch things drop.(09-16-2013, 04:58 PM)Kerr Wrote: Lately, I've been getting a little discouraged as a tank. I love the class and I love to help people, but I think there comes a time when everyone needs to step back from abuse or frustration and take a break. That's why my fisher is at level 32 right now. Heh. Anyway, what I wanted to say was: I know I'm not the best tank ever, but I can learn. Most people want to be good at their class/job; to be valued. Be kind to your tanks, advise them when you can. Most will listen.ÂI know what you mean, I've only been a tank for a few days and it's burning me out already. Run a copperbell party, tell the new people about the bosses, and an archer (of course it's an archer.) at the last boss decides; "Ignoring the adds and focusing on the boss the entire fight is the better plan, you must be new or something." We proceed to barely win the fight, with about 6-7 extra giants in the room with us at that point, mind you. His comment then? "That fight took too long, you guys should do more damage."
And if they don't, you can poke me to help you. I'm probably just fishing. Level 37 and climbing.
