This.
Blaming Archers and Gunners not using AC but 90% of all time is my Gunner or Archer who is tanking because Warden or BM don't know how. I must do damage, mechs and same time avoiding boss attacks. And when boss is down Warden yelling at me why I didn't use AC, but it's ok that he failed as tanker. (And also nobody care that I'm loosing half of my DPS, because I must tanking as DPS class.)
I have FM as main and Gunner, Archer, Summoner and Blade Dancer as alts with decent gear. I'm playing with them everyday.
And my today experience for example:
Summoner - Hollow's Heart - two Wardens in party a I'm tanking every boss. When I said that in chat, their response was "do less damage". I'm not joking.
Gunner - Drowing Deeps - one Warden, one Warlock and one KFM in party. I used AC on every boss but never get second BW or BB on any boss. And guess who tanking.
And this is happening every day. It's not something rare. And I'm starting to be tired of this.
So SilverFoxR before you start blaming Archers and Gunners not doing their job, look for own classes and ppl who playing with them and ask them same question. "Why are you not doing your job?"
Thank you.
