Disagree. From a healing perspective, if I Repose a mob in a group, the rest immediately aggro on me. Even if I get to the tank in time, 9 times out of 10, he won't be able to pull them off me fast enough to keep me from dying. The best thing for me, as a healer, to do is to simply run to the other side of the tank and pray. Even if I hit Shroud of Saints, if I'm the only person with threat on those adds (and I will be if I'm healing the tank, which I will almost certainly be doing since we're dealing with another pack), it won't matter. They'll still come straight for me. And because Regen is a primary mana-saving healing tool, there's an extremely high probability that I'll get threat before anyone else no matter what I do - because I can't click the HoT off another player. They have to do that themselves, and by the time they do (assuming they even think to do so), it's too late.
So honestly, as a WHM, there's not a hell of a lot I can do to control anything in this situation, especially if the tank is already being beaten on (since I can't really stop for 3 seconds to try to get a Repose off that one of the DPS or the tank is going to break almost immediately) and risk the tank dropping.
The bulk of the blame is just basically situational awareness. If you see a patrol approaching, the best thing to do would be to back away. But the tanking game being as it is, it's hard to watch chat, the area around you, and do your job, so I can't completely blame the tank.
Wipes happen.
I agree with her on this...
Also.. Not trying to sound mean or anything but why is there a thread for this? :l Dps queues have always been like this in any mmo with a 'duty finder'. Just gotta befriend a tank or healer and ask them/join them when they do stuff.. Saves the hassle with dealing with annoying derpy randoms.
Edit: Also I'm a Warrior tank and if you need a queue for any dungeon 1-50 (Except AK.. I tend only to do that annoying place with people I know a bit, sorry.) Hit me up and if I'm not busy or anything I most likely will not decline your request for help. I <3 the Titan fight btw.. Just saiyan.
Because people can make a thread about anything they feel like discussing.
