So I'm getting the hang of tanking by now, I've been playing GNB for a while and got to lvl 72 recently. I'm really loving the job, everything about it is really cool and I don't mind the busy rotation.
But there's something I've been wondering for a while. I normally main WHM and I usually stick close to my tank in dungeons, and usually the rest of the party does so as well. Sometimes the tank runs ahead and it's hard to keep up, but I always stay behind them when they're pulling mobs.
But when I play tank, I almost always notice a couple of players running ahead instead. I don't know if I'm being too slow, I'm doing wall to wall pulls, and I always let them know I'm relatively new to tanking and I'm open to feedback.
A few days ago I was doing The Temple of the Fist, and I let my party know I'm still learning tanking and it was the first time doing this dungeon. But I noticed the AST running ahead and pulling the mobs, they got themselves killed 3 times because of this. We eventually got past them, but I'm now wondering if I'm doing something wrong if this is happening whenever I tank.
For reference, I am following the advice I got for pulling mobs, run to them and do my AOEs (Demon Slice + Demon Slaughter and Lighting Shot for stragglers). Wall to wall pulling and using my mits.
