Then you're grouping with the wrong people. If fighting is still going on, you shouldn't roll on items, simple.Quote:

Rolling on Leather and Cloth items will get you grief. As for those who "mooch" at the back, they are the ones dealing all the damage, not you, if you don't like them then you won't be able to do many instances.Quote:

Without either one in your instance group, you will die very quickly too making it a worthless trip.Quote:

In SM you did though didn't you? You might have said "sorry" but you still looted before we'd finished fighting - case closed there I think.
If fighting is going on the dead bodies shouldn't be looted, then no-one can roll, not the other way round.
I'm pretty sure I didn't. But if either FT or Stoo (they are who I remember being there) remember me doing such a thing, then I will gladly eat my shorts.Quote:

In SM over the weekend, Velan was doing all the fighting and very kindly letting me and his wife, Ellia, go through the loot. But as I said, that doesn't happen too often.
Anyway, this is supposed to be about tanking, not looting. Back on topic we go. :)
looting still happens in combat by acident. I can almost guarantee that everyone here has at some point clicked on a corpse while trying to hit the next enemy.
I rolled on a belt I didn't want and won and it was BoP. :Oops: I still feel sick thinking about it now. Best I could do was sell it and give the cash to the person it should have gone to. I hope I've learn't my lesson.
I wouldnt worry about it mate. Most of us have done it at some point. It's a steep learning curve and we all know it wasn't on purpose. That's all that matters.Quote:

If you are dead you dont get a roll, wait for everyone to be there before looting, "what goes around, comes around" (you could be the dead guy)
This isn't the case, I often get through 1G of arrows in a long instance, every time i feed my pet it costs me 3Silver, if we have no tank my pet dies a lot = a lot of 3 silvers......... Also I have an armour bill, although it may not be plate, mail still aint cheapQuote:

A good healer appreciates that if a tank dies, he dies, keeping the tank alive saves his skin, try an instance with AZ. Guarantee youll have fun.Quote:
