Hey all,
So I was just in a 4 man Heroic quest in Tatooine: A Jawa's Conern with a Guardian as the tank. It started out a bit iffy and after he stole a purple Willpower mod I was already annoyed, but then we got to the second group in the cave and everything except the one target he is attacking is running around usually attacking a DPS and then, when they are dead, going for the healer all while the Guardian doesn't even bother moving.
He couldn't hold, let alone initiate any type of agro on the mobs, so I tried to figure out the problem. He said he could only taunt one mob at a time (maybe he thought a taunt would generate permanent threat like attacks do (do they in SWTOR?)). He also said he only had 1 AoE.
After we tried 2 more times and it became apparent he wasn't going to try any different strategy, with DPS focus firing splash damage was stealing agro, I ditched.
Was this a bad player or is the class this flawed? I play a Balance Shadow and the other was some type of DPS Commando so both have some splash damage, but he was 30 or 32, don't remember exactly and I did read around a little and found out that's when the Guardian is suppose to hit it's stride.
