I've personally never felt dps was any better or worse than other roles. If I try to think of the worst roulette run I've ever had it was me as a tank with a scholar who couldn't locate any other healing button outside of physick. Though they left after I said something and then got replaced by a better healer.
I grow a bit more convinced you happen to live in a completely different timeline from the rest of us somehow.
Huh, that's interesting to hear then. Bardam used to be extremely ballbusting to heal in ShB when you get a levelling tank for me as a SCH (who naturally lose half their toolkit at that fucking level too).
I can confirm that Bardam's is still a bit ballbusting to heal.
Normally I don't pay attention to what other people are doing unless I'm forced to such as when I have to play healer(Pay attention to people's health) or tank(Did someone aggro some of the pack before I was done pulling?) so I don't really have an idea in my head of how long dungeons are 'supposed' to take and I don't check whether healers are AOEing or stuff like that. I just zone out and press my own buttons until shit's dead.
The first pull tends to be 50/50 on whether or not we wipe if I run it as a tank, and that's with literally using all of my cooldowns, including invul and potions.
Oddly enough I don't think I've ever had issues tanking or healing Gulg despite how wild the first wall-to-wall can get. Holminster's Switch, on the other hand...
I fondly remember watching tanks get absolutely crushed by Holminster's upon release. It never stopped being the case but seeing the weak willed excuses upon facing anything modestly dangerous was pure comedy.
I tank 99.9999% of the time and I always try for w2w. Gulg is one of the few where it can still be a shitshow if the healer isn't on top of their game. Bardam's is another.
The Gulg pull is fun though.
Man, you ask first?
Best I've done is 3 pack pull at the start and stopping around the corner to gather the souls together with the rest of the pack. There's a lot of new healers in that dungeon who won't sprint and will easily lose LoS on you due to the tight turns, so pulls beyond double is a risk. The entire pull might be possible with a competent Astrologian + Warrior for Holmgang, but I can't see this being done with random sprouts.
I have it too, definitely one of the more interesting ways to brag to someone about having completed a long and droning side objective for the sake of a mount, since getting a good chunk of the cards required to obtain the card mount demands you do stuff like the BLU Job questlines, progress in Bozja and Eureka, and even do specific generic yellow questlines just to unlock certain NPC's for TT matches that yield specific cards.
If it's dungeons, run it with Trusts first and figure out the mechanics. Addendum: Dungeon running isn't even remotely complicated as a Tank and you shouldn't be struggling too hard to warrant complaints unless you're dealing with crybaby tryhards who can't cut you some slack for being a sprout.
Aurum Vale, and getting yelled at by the dps for not pulling the mobs off them while they keep running ahead of me and dragging mobs in from the area then bitching at me for not agro pulling everything. Since you guys were talking about it I figured I should ask for a guide post patch. My husband who was being a extremely distracted healer told me to just go watch a video despite letting us wipe. Just demoralized and kinda not having fun now...
Oh, fuck those people. Does AV just attract shitters lately or something? I had a group of retards that kept trying to pull ahead of me one of the last times I was in there as well, so I just let a couple of their faggot asses drop before establishing aggro. I can easily wall to wall with the best of them, but I'm not gonna tolerate Mentor crown-wearing shitters acting like little pissants, especially if there's a sprout or two in the same party.
