Where do you find "The Love"?

RFD doesn't give much scope to Warlocks. On the other hand, Maraudon and BRD stand out in my mind that I felt I was working my butt off with Pavis. I think this is less a factor of playing a "support" class and more that RFD is a "perfect storm" of Warlock unkindness, especially with a somewhat overlevelled group.

I know I was with Eth on the BRD run when you were Da Man and really, everyone else just was support for Pavis. It was a blast. =)

I'll register my mild disagreement on what we are calling "support" classes. In my mind, there is one goal in any encounter - putting the opposition horizontal. The tank/healer duo is a tactic that facilitates the survival of the real point of the spear, the DPS monkeys. I'd call the tank and the healer the support team.[right][snapback]83440[/snapback][/right]

I really do have to agree with this, especially the more raiding I do. Basically, the tank and healer perform the same role - keeping the DPS monkeys alive. It's better if your tank can do DPS monkey stuff too, but after seeing how all our DPS classes did with the general after all the healers and tanks went down, it just reinforces the idea of us being support for them. This doesn't mean the DPS monkeys can do whatever they want though because they are the wheel of the group compared to the lynchpin of the tanks and healers. They still have the responsibility of controlling their own aggro for the good of the group.
