KamiraXIV: As a tank main...

"I am in this picture, and I do not like it"

Thanks for the bonus scene, it was exactly what I hoped for!

aspiringartist3949: The fact that you can pull everything before the first boss of Mt Gulg at the same time is beautiful

thattallmexican6900: That post from TalesfromDF was insane. Great add lol

This vid had some fantastic edits:>

kiyoshiizumi02: I instantly recognized those movements from that DMC5 Nero moveset! So epic.

Also as a Tank/Gunbreaker for life, I STRIVE to not make these same mistakes lmao. Except the last one, if the boss has low enough health im going for it

Gitskreig: Theres also the WAR specific 'The healer dropped? Nah, I'm a White Mage with an axe!' types (like me)

Jon0001: I just que to fell cleave no more no less.

feyefall4855: I can happily say I'm not the Supreme Mitigator anymore, but I adored the internal "I panicked!" Terribly accurate!

HoracioBautista-rs9wl: I feel called out!!!!

chrisironland7050: For once, I can't recognize myself in any of them :D I wall to wall if I got cds and/or healer asks for bigger pulls, mitigations spread evenly by running at least 1 per pack at all times, will lose aggro only to better equipped/melded tank, say sorry if I really forgot my stance (never catch me lacking on AOE spam), last stand tanking if everyone is cool with it and boss has low enough hp to smack it down within 5 minutes tops.

Anyhow, great video, really brings out the stereotypes of single-type tanks, 5/5 XD

salamanderYT: That commedation scene at the end was too real XD another amazing video one day I hope to be able to make edits this good

FiohSion: Wow, this was your best one yet!!

drbiohazmat: YOU ANIMATED THE TOO FAR TANK FREAK OUT LMAOOOOO

johnermactavish1162: I am tank type 1. Heart soul and mind. However if they literally say they are new to healing or the raid. I will do a pressure test. Pull everything until the first wall and pop my invul if needed. Even the most mediocre of healers can usually catch up if I blow my boss skill that early. If I have to use that then I know for a fact they really cannot keep up and will slow down. Otherwise, I WANT MY HEALERS TO SWEAT I WANT YOU PANTING AND OUT OF BREATH I WANT YOU SO EXHAUSTED YOUR LEGS ARE SHAKING AND ABOUT TO GIVE OUT I WANT EVERY SINGLE LAST OUNCE OF YOUR STAMINA AND THEN SOME.

It is literally the only way I can feel alive. Plus I find when healers do get put through a harsh paddling but manage to stay on top of it they are happy. Tired and bleeding and missing teeth but they proved to the group and themselves they can handle themselves.

Vendetta444: Rule of thumb for solo finishing a boss as tank

4player content ~20%

8player content ~10%

This corresponds to your contribution in an equal party. Wipe or solo, it takes the same time.

elafacwen8176: The editing and camera work on this is actually insane

NamelessScion: good old number one theme

Nyanti_Games: The bonus scene is way too real as a tank main lol, do some wacky locked in stuff to save the run, playing tank and healer to keep the only dps alive up while and then the dead catgirl gets all the comms XD my friend refuses to believe in the simp comms but we all know

LockelyFox: Oh, I am definitely #1, but with an asterisk. I will inspect my healer at the start. if they're in raid gear, we're wallin. If they're in leveling gear, they get the "How spicy do you want the pulls?" If no response to that, we're going full carolina reaper.

rodrigobispo7343: This edit was fire! Congratulations!

Alexier_EXVS: I remember one time playing as PLD and the new healer said "pull wall to wall i want something challenging" and the dungeon was Mt.Gulg

I was like: HEHE BOIII

deeps6979: Forgot the part in Last Tank Standing where tank goes from 20% to 1% then bites it anyway lol

零號-y2o: LOL you actually made that player from talesfromdf’s character in this vid

littlebubulle: I'm a lala WAR. If you can still see me, I'm not pulling hard enough.

stevecampbell9670: I'm not any of those. I'm more of a guide or shepherd. I pull 5-6 at a time. I lead the group through professionally and efficiently. I keep everyone safe and take as much of the damage as I can. As far as I am concerned, the tank should lead the group and dictate the speed of progress. When I tank, nothing irks me more than a non-tank running off and grabbing aggro onto themselves. When I DPS nothing irks me more than a tank who overpulls and gets himself murked. And, yeah, getting blanked on the comms as a tank is always bewildering. Especially after a textbook run. Effing ingrates.

Gofr5: Heck yeah!! Nothing feels better than taking down a boss after everyone else has wiped. My latest experience at that was taking down one at 40% from one of the latest dungeons, forget which boss exactly it was, but it was fun. Though in that case it was a tank and dps working together.
