Now I will say I've been guilty of the UK hall pull, and died due to being stunned, but ya know what. You learn, and I can't remember the last time I died doing that. Cooldowns are there for a reason, if you're a tank and reading this do me a favor, don't suck. Use them. They have ridiculously small CDs now a days. Beats the old days when Shield Wall had a 30 min cd, remember that? yea. Five minutes is awesome.<br /><br />Many times have I encountered terrible tanks. It's shameful with how easy tanking is in wrath, but it's still there and very evident.<br /><br />Back to the big pulling thing, here's a little known secret.. ready? You don't have to pull big to make a run go fast. Shocker I know. It's almost just as fast, or even times faster, to just pull the groups normally but pull at a steady pace. Bam bam bam, one pull after the other. I do this (with the occasional bit pull) and my heroic runs last 15-20 minutes with people seldom dying. Try it. <br /><br />Also, another tip. You have party frames for a reason. Keep an eye on your healer and their mana. Over 50% and you're good to go. Under 50% just ask them if they want a drink, not hard. Like Jarr says, just because you have 50k life doesn't mean everything, especially if you don't have a healer. If they need a drink, let them. It won't kill you to wait a few extra seconds. Remember its a group thing.<br /><br />PS Jarr, good to see a new post :)Chrisnoreply@blogger.com
