Tanks and Tankery

But you should be fine so long as you train people at the beginning of the fight to use the assist command: Fkeys (F1, F2, F3, F4, F5) and then the f key they can see what you are targetting and stay on that mob until it dies. They should repeat the assist process until the fight is over.

:( Okay, this is a related non-related question. I've had trouble with the assist functions so far. I've searched this forum and a few others as well and read the Blizz manual, but I'm still not clear on exactly how this function is activated or directed.

So far it seems that if I click on a cohort and then press the "f" key, I begin to assist that player, but it's been unreliable for the most part, especially when there are a few cohorts in a party. (I'm sure it's the clicker who is unreliable more than the function.)

Could someone enlighten me? And please don't forget to imagine that you're talking to a 4 year old.
