I was tanking with a friend one time. Same result: Hunter kept pulling with his pet and me and the Healer finally agreed to just let him die a couple of times. Needless to say, he got the idea :D
I say the same, and I have said it in dungeons too. And the DPS has died a few times because of it too ^_^ They usually understand, or leave the group because "Tank is retarted" :P
There needs to be a way to make every DPS player in WoW watch this video. (I play DPS myself; but the number of times I've seen someone get impatient and pull without the tank is astounding. It never ends well.)
This song may've been made with WoW in mind, but, there's times when this... (dps pulling extra mobs to the tank 'cause they "not pulling fast enough") ...can happen in FFXIV as well... Which's why I'm not really a fan of tanking (and, if the Adventurer in Need with the Duty Finder's of any indication, it looks like I'm not alone in this). >.>
@@amegenshiken You're not. I don't play FFXIV but I get completely what you're saying. I have tried tanking but impatient d*cks make it just totally unpleasant. I play DPS and I let the tank pull at their own pace. No need to be a d*ck.
Friendly dps here, I'm actually thankful for all the tanks I've had up until now. I as a dps know my place after the tank. So little me dosen't have the energy to pull all those extra mobs. But if the tank pulls them I'll happily kill them. Don't know how many times I've been saved by tanks bcs other stupid deeps don't listen. /The friendly DPS
This song perfectly displays my feelings about tanking, if somone pulls extra mobs, no second chances, you tank it with no heals and no help. end of story
Wuldraider I've pulled extra mobs before by accident (usually getting too close to something I didn't know would pull when trying to move around), but I never pulled on purpose
@@aurumvale9908 Uhh kid, you do realize you're replying to a six year old comment, correct? Are you really just that stupid or do you honestly think replying to an extremely old comment will get you a reply back? To answer your dumb, brainless question: the tank is the leader and if you feel impatient and want to go faster then that's your problem, so leave the dungeon if you don't like the tank's pace. You pull an extra mob, you're tanking it.
Oh GOD!!! This fits me perfectly! My main is a prot warrior, so I tank dungeons and raids. How I hate when the DPs pull before I'm ready, especially when they turn around and blame me if we wipe.
I love this song, that's just my policy. I'll forgive them if it's an accident, but if they're intentionally pulling, I let them tank them. Because clearly they think they're capable of it.
LOL as a player who mains with a Blood DK (and has 3 tanks total), this song totally sings to me. Kills me how many dps players just have NO respect for tanks anymore, especially top level content like the current MoP heroics. I've had to make macros to spam into dungeon groups on load in to let em know, i will pull big and fast whenever possible, no need to run ahead!
Hey SilverLetomi, love your work as usual. You have a great voice and sing this very well. But what might be even more epic is if there was a wow vid with it. I'm still slightly new to making wow vids but if you let me I'd be ecstatic to do my best to make one worthy of your work
Its kinda funny for me as heals and my tank partner, because we would actually love it when the group pulled extra because they'd freak out about us being in danger, then me and my partner would actually take things seriously and win anyway even when the whole room got pulled. That was in earlier dungeons so I don't know if it'd be the same at the end game dungeons and such, but it was fun back then.
ROFL! YES! I normally say, "You spank it, you tank it!" How does the floor taste now? #DirtNap Had me cracking up. When my girlfriend is a healer on those runs, she will leave their corpse where it lands.
+Nicholas Outland Exactly! I am a tank and my husband runs heals with me or vice versa. And i actually got a warrior pissed im like bro idon't need you 1 im a fucking pally I do this shit myself. 2. You pulled it.
Yes. Just, pure yes. I leveled with my brother who tanked while I healed (even into dungeons and raids). This brings back so many memories of people just charging ahead without me or him ready. In some cases In most cases I wish he wasn't as nice as he is and just let them die... Going in my music library now, good job :)
My main is a hunter and I had barrage for like 5 min-switched to glaive toss once I saw what barrage does.....pulling adds when you're not the tank is a sure fire way to get booted from a raid
love this song and its so true i was slowly learning to tank while leveling and those people with looms rushing to level would always keep pulling mobs because they wanted it faster so i just sat there and let them die after several warnings i already gave lol so funny to see the rage
maybe so but did u not read what i initially posted as i was learning to tank i was taking what i could handle as i did not want to ruin it for everyone else there is a difference between new tank and bad tank take that into consideration before you start saying who is bad and yes a tank should be one step of the dps but its not the dps place to pull mobs they should know they shouldnt be doing that so its still bad dps
***** When someone is new to tanking they're gonna pull slower than those who are accostumated to it. It may be considered a poor tanking job by many, but a new tank doesn't know how many mobs he can pull without dying, but as long as they can hold aggro properly, they're good. You, too, Clatterbot, has once upon a time pulled like this. I know I have, and now I'm quite good. Nonetheless, I'm still guilty of, when playing DPS/healer, pulling before the tank does, because I get bored.
but its not the dps job to pull thats the point and its why they are called out regardless of if they are bored as long as everyone gets through w/o dying then the tank is doing his job correctly, ive seen groups wipe due to a dps pulling more than the tank can handle as hes not fully geared/still learning to play the game it doesnt make him bad
Love IT. I have to admit as a Mage I have tanked some when the mobs slip away from the tank after heals. I fashion myself a rear guard and Heal's guard. I rather die than let the healer go down.
Made this song 'cause of the trash before Dark Shammies? Every Hunter's Barrage pulls the whole Valley of Strength. They say it's on accident, but you know they love popping that.
Jerry Peet yes, for some reason hunters are the most ignorant of all dps. They pull when your not rdy, the don't know how to turn off growl. They are the biggest shit talkers and a bunch of other stuff. So yes, hunters MUST be determined to be assholes.
Eh, I've threatened that from time to time, but my reflex when it actually happens is to roll my eyes and hit taunt. I just don't have it in me to let people go splat.
Thats specially true now with some new WOW Mythic + Affixes (necrotic specially), I need my cooldowns and sometimes I just need 3 seconds to wait for a patrol to move away and some people think they should just decide to pull. To be fair I still miss the old The Burning Crusade carefull tanking (with markings and crowd control).
there is the harder dngs like legion raids and dngs pain in my ass >_> im all over this comment sections XD i think legion came out in 2017-2018 something like that well i going to a different video has been fun reading the comments and uh going all over the comment section >:D
As one to play one of the easiest classes to tank (DK to me anyway) I should link this song. Because God damn I am super fast tank but even some dps still go ahead. So you go ahead and you tank that.
Yeah, I learned not to do that early on, yet sometimes Ret Pallies do it accidentally with Judgement. I haven't had the issue in Shadowlands yet. Hopefully I won't.
When MoP came out from level 80-84 pandaria gear was available for each class and you could make a toon that was insanely OP I ran a Hunter that way and in one dungeon me and a warrior took out the mobs before the tank and healer could get into the fight my hunter was at 83% crit of course you ran the dungeons with xp off for the blues you needed and only turned xp on for pvp so much fun for a short time.
That's always been my motto when I tank "you pull it you tank it" maybe im learning a new class, maybe im just relaxing, but just sit tight and lets do this! great song!
I remember good old BC days... I would tank adds on my shadow priest during heroics. Every tank would freak out, but I'd be like "I got this man!" I was so awesome back then.
Ah yes the role of God us tanks play. Piss us off, you get agro dumped on you every pull and die when everyone else is untouched and watching you get karma... And kissing the floor lol. Amazingly done
SilverLetomi You're fine!! Videos were posted some time ago ty for the response!! I'm sad I never found these before, but I've been enjoying your music verily!! Literally recapping my entire... Hate to say approaching 2 decade tanking career -- hilariously!Shocked you aren't a million sub big timer!!
I learned this lesson back in vanilla and happily taught it to others when I tanked. I wouldn't taunt anything some idiot decided to pull without me. Later on, when Neural Silencers became an option, I started using those. A hunter got mad he couldn't misdirect threat to me. I told him if he spanked it, he tanked it. It's why I generally will not tank for anyone except myself and trusted friends/guildmates I know won't pull that crap.
This is just perfect, one of my guildies always aoes instantly and then goes "Aggro!" when all the mobs go for him.. I'm glad I only tank in alt raids :P
Trying to level a new blood knight DK and I keep getting in groups with DPS that insist on pulling. Nevermind that while I'm a VERY experienced tank as a Protection Paladin, I am totally new to the completely different way that Blood Knights tank... so these DPS are causing massive wipes and I get the blame.
Your voice is awesome and you sing this so perfectly! :D I just wanna get up and dance to this song! :D I can't wait to hear more of your super tunes. :D
I agree and love this song completely. I always let DPS tank what they pull, if they bitch about it, it's on them. I believe you should respect your tank and sit your ass back and let them do their job. It's not what you want to do, it's their confidence and capabilities as a tank. Warriors for example are limited on aoe in the early levels. And I am a boss tank as a druid but when DPS pull extra in Skyreach because their a fucking dumbass the healer can't keep up and we wipe. I pull based on what I know my healer can handle. If you can't respect that as a DPS you really need to get a hold on your life. Tanks overreact but DPS need to respect the roles.
i remamberd when i started playing at wraft and read the beginners guide it said that the ranged dps should pull .-. no idea where the tank pulls comes from
This whole song sums up me when I tank... I see a dps pull when I am drinking mana/getting ready to pull and i am like... yeah nah you going to tank that now lol
Anytime I listen to this song all I can do is bob my head and sing along because it's so awesome. I am to scared to tank cause I don't do good with stuff like that, but I have healed and I give the dps one warning after they've pulled once if they continue I don't heal them, and it's their own fault, it sucks because I've been booted from many groups cause of that warning and people thinking I'm bad at heals, it's more of I don't feel like healing idiots who's ego's are bigger than their bodies. But again this song is awesome and I agree with it whole heartedly!
Wow non raid pve(looking for retards doesent count) is just facerolling these days, doesent matter what u do Its actually really hard to wipe LFRs on purpose, and trust me, I've tried AND done it a lot
I'm a Marks/BM hunter and I totally agree with this song. If my wolf chases and pulls I should have to take care of it. Normally I have to go to my bear or croc to tank it be its just responsible to take the stuff you bring onto the group. I know most DPS I'd like it's not my job but the Tank knows what it can handle and they pull that
No...the should know what they can handle and has some CCs assigned to make it easier on hard pulls. I know from heroics that stupid tanks who blame the healer when its the tanks fucking fault. Thats an immediate MD boss onto tank and me and healer hearth out.
