One other thing to keep in mind, there are relatively few actual Taunts in the game however everyone has ways of generating aggro (mmo speak for where you stand in the attention of the mob aka enemy). If your a pure damage class and you go full out doing every bit of damage you can you'll raise in the "hate list" for whatever mob your fighting. It is YOUR responsibility to manage your position on the hate list, the same goes for healers (which is the age old thankless task the more you heal the more the mob hates you, but you have to heal or everyone dies) You may not be actually taunting, you may simply be generating more "hate" than the tank. Some simple rules for mmo fights on boss mobs. 1) Let the tank have 5 seconds to get himself/herself established on the bosses hate list before you join the fight. 2) If the mob does turn and start smacking you, stop doing heavy damage hits until the mob turns back to the tank for at least 5 seconds. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD YOU RUN AWAY FROM THE MOB! Sorry for all caps on that but running will guarantee you die as now the tank and the healer have to chase you and the mob around trying to regain control of the situation. If you are going to die, a good player knows it's best to die in a convenient place, and that place generally right next to the tank. When (not if) you die under no circumstances is it ever acceptable to complain to the healer about it. If you do think there's a situation where it's acceptable to complain to a healer about your dieing then you need to play a healer until you understand what it's like to be blamed for every death that ever happens in a game regardless of the cause. 3) Healing is line of sight, so know where the healer is and make sure you are not behind a pillar, in a hallway off to the side, or behind a stack of crates all of those places will prevent you from being healed. IT IS NOT the healers job to chase you down. The healers job is to keep the tank and themselves alive, everyone else is a secondary priority. Good healers can handle healing multiple targets and don't mind doing so however there really isn't a reason short of a random instant AOE (area effect) that damages multiple people at once where more than one person should be taking damage in the typical boss fight. Yes it happens, but if it's happening every fight then even if they don't say anything about it keep in mind your healer resents you. Pissing off a healer means you get no heals what so ever. ps. Yes I have a bias towards healers because I've played them in the past and everyone has opinions on the topic I freely admit that.
