So you roulette in Sephirot NM, and it's your first time. Congratulations, you hit the whammy!
You are a tank. What do you do?
a) You look at the other tank that's got 10k+ HP on you, is already in his tank stance, and knows what he's doing, figure he'll main tank it, switch to Sword Oath/Deliverance and try to follow the herd/wait for someone to explain the fight as much as possible.
b) Run in like a maniac, forsake any sort of pretension that you know what you're doing as far as general tanking goes, almost get killed by a tankbuster because your HP is so damn low, get sniped by a Yesod, get revived, try to wave your epeen around by taking Sephirot, die again, wipe the party then abandon duty because you couldn't sit and fucking listen.
* * *
This happened to me, I did A. We got 1 wipe and a clear.
This happened to another tank I was paired with. They did B, abandon after 1 wipe.
