If you’re using your class quest gear or random stuff from AV, then that’s 
about the same as me. I dunno what weapon you have, but the GC is probably the 
best
 bet.
For the rest your gear shouldn’t be that much worse than the rest of us. I’ve 
got 1 darklight item. My jewellery is all normal crap, not even HQ.

No I stop dps because I will pull agro off lb too easily especially if I open 
with crit buffs. I end up running quite a bit as well giving lb time to build 
enmity back. I do need better gear though. Everything I have was given
 through quests. We need to run dungeons until I get better gear

The Japanese parser is cool cos it lets you compare your values with other 
people on the net who use the same tool.  We are undergeared for WP speedruns.  
I compared Tank (or Bard?) damage to an 11min speedrun and they were doing 
triple the amount on the boss
 alone.  For various reasons, parsers entirely accurate because SE doesn't 
report detailed info.  Like it won't take into account damage mitigated by 
buffs etc.



As you can see from the chart, we basically can't compete with Stu's DPS (this 
value doesn't include pet DPS).  The reason Khan's DPS is lower than LBs is 
because LB tries to play tank like a DPS.  He goes for damage not aggro and 
thinks we can AoE burst everything
 dead before they aggro us.


The one thing I do notice is though (I dunno if it's a bard thing), but it 
seems Khan has a relatively low hit-rate, which could mean low DEX, or he got 
hit by ailments too often which I couldn't remove because I was focusing on LB 
all the time.

I parsed the battle log for WP last night.  I used 65k MP on heals.  I bet 
64.5k of that was just on LB.  LB, stop doing dumb shit.  You think it's just 
easy to heal you non-stop, but when you have 4 enemies on
 you and you refuse to reposition yourself, I can BARELY keep up with the 
damage.   I have to ignore ailments, DPS and my pet just to stop you from 
dying.  And then I have to hope that you're maintaining aggro so I don't pull 
threat off you.



Read this please:



Tank: (MRD, GLA) The informal leader of the group, and probably the one with 
the most responsibilities. You set the pace for the run, and most of the time 
it's up to you to do most of the firefighting when things go haywire. Good tanks
 will command the most respect, as they rightfully should.

·        
First and foremost, and more importantly than the other two roles,
PAY ATTENTION. It's easy to get tanking tunnel vision. You're juggling to keep 
control of multiple enemies. You're making sure that no one else is getting 
attacked, or about to get aggro. Managing your cooldowns. Keeping yourself 
alive. Keeping
 control. On top of this, you have to watch for AoE. Patrolling groups. Your 
health. If you have bad party members, your responsibilities will just keep 
increasing. It's a tough job, but you're the only one who can do it.


·        
So, make sure you don't get caught by surprise. Make sure you're one step ahead 
of the game. Keep an eye out for what's happening in the battlefield. Make sure 
your health doesn't dip too low, and if it does, take the necessary
 steps to reduce further damage by popping your mitigation and healing 
cooldowns. Make sure your party mates aren't getting attacked. If they are, 
quickly take steps to divert attention back to yourself.

·        
Use the marking system. If you've seen the big [1] signs hovering over the 
heads of enemies, you'll know what I'm talking about. Put them on a hotbar or 
macro them. This lets your party know which one you'll be
 focusing on, so that they can attack that one safely without pulling aggro off 
you. It doesn't hurt to politely remind a new party to focus fire on the marked 
targets, either.

·        
If there are multiple enemies, take the time to hit every one of them. Far too 
often, I see tanks only attack one target in a group of three. As a tank, you 
should be making sure that you're retaliating against
 every enemy that you're facing, and not just one. Even if the DPS are 
attacking what you are, the healer is almost always quickly gaining enmity on 
all the mobs throughout the battle. Make the effort to land a hit or two on 
every enemy. Cycle targets constantly.
Use your AoE enmity skills like Flash and Overwhelm frequently.
Your overall job is to control, not to kill.

·        
Tank with your enemies attacking in front of you. This is Tanking 101. As far 
as I can tell, you can't block, dodge, or parry something that
 is stabbing you in the back. Reposition yourself during battle so that you're 
taking the hits from the front. This reduces your damage taken, thereby 
increasing your survivability and the party's chances for success.

·        
Additionally, turn the enemies away from the party.
After you gain control of the enemy group, rotate your position so that any AoE 
attacks don't fly past you and hit your healer. This is especially key for the 
Ifrit fight, and his flame breath that doesn't have an AoE red marker. 

·        
Know your limits. Don't bite off more than you can chew.
There's enjoyment to be got in a challenge, but try not to involve other people 
in your mistakes. If you're running with friends for fun, I'd say go wild. 
However, in a PUG, people generally want to get things done quick and easy, not 
frantically and
 stressfully.

·        
Don't be afraid to ask for something. This actually applies to everyone, but 
very much so the tank. As the person who's setting the pace of the run, the 
more comfortable you are, the more effective the run can
 be. However, make sure that what you're asking for makes sense and is a 
reasonable request. For example, don't demand that the healer put in DPS time. 
This could lead to unnecessary stress and may even end up getting you killed. 
If someone refuses to comply
 with your reasonable request, drop it. Players are people, not your servants. 
Remain professional, try to have fun in the challenge, get it done quickly, 
grumble to yourself, and move on.

·        
Listen to your party.
If they're complaining about something, it isn't always groundless. Please 
don't get defensive. If they're saying that you suck, ask them why (maybe 
you're losing control often), and what they would prefer you to be doing 
instead. If they give a vague
 answer like "suck less", then they are assholes, and you could offer your own 
suggestions (as long as it's not "stick it up your ass") like, "If I marked 
targets, would that help?" You may have your own style of playing, but there is 
an overall unspoken party
 etiquette to follow. An effective leader is one who knows how to work with his 
companions.
