Stop it. NOW!

I’m not talking about a brisk run pace; I don’t like to stop and drink after every trash pull, either.

I’m talking about tanks who literally move as fast as possible. Last mob down and they’re already off to the next - even when it’s it the next room….or even when the next is a boss.

Not even waiting for a shift-click loot.

Look, it’s one thing to clear a whole big room or an area like that. But to clear ALL the trash up to a boss, and then THE BOSS ITSELF, like that, makes you an asshole.

Tanks like to believe that they are the ones who control the pace. But they’re not. The healers do.

Try tanking all the trash and then the boss without any heals and see how far you get in a Heroic.

I was in a run last night where the tank did this. Never stopped to let anyone loot, not even a second. Literally, he ran into the bosses’ rooms without waiting to see if anyone else even followed.

Well, gold is gold, so I’m gonna loot. I skin, also, and even some 245 Leatherworking patterns take leather, so I’m gonna skin. The healer friend with our group would have liked to loot…but she felt obligated to stay with the tank…and so her play experience ( her “fun”) was negatively impacted by this idiot.

Healers, it is YOU who control whether or not the tank goes too fast for the comfort and enjoyment of both yourself and your party. If you find yourself with a tank who doesn’t allow time to loot, who doesn’t even bother to fake caring about whether the party is ready…then sit your ass down and eat a cookie. Let the tank come back to you and politely inform him that the group will move as fast as YOU wish. not him.

The next tank that pulls this crap in MY group is gonna catch hell before I and my friends either:

1) Vote-kick his ass

2) Pull half the instance onto him and portal/stone

3) Let him die halfway into the instance while we eat cookies at the start.
