You can do those pulls easily without having the healer cringing in fear of not being able to heal the mage quickly enough if the AoErs just hold off for a little bit. You have a tank, use it. :D (There, pet peeve rant out of the way. ;) )
We don't do that! Yuri waits for a bit, launches a flamestrike, which is my signal to shield him and heal him. Of course this got us killed in LBRS because multiple crystallizes from the spiders sent them all after squishies. We did better with immediate AoE there.
The dance we have is that if I have to heal the tank before AoE comes in, they break for me. This ruins the flamestrike, and also divides my attention as Yuri starts AoEing which causes me stress ;)
Quote:Oh, and I also disagree about every DM north run should be a Tribute run. THere are some nice things that come off some of the guards in there so some should be full tribute runs, some should be partial tribute runs until folks get the shinys they want off the guards. :)

Indeed, killing the guards has better odds of a gear upgrade for the priest at least.
