Tank needs to keep Threat whatever it takes.
healer needs to keep everyone alive whatever it takes.
DPS need to down the boss and do as much dmg as possible, whatever it takes.
if a DPS dies becos a boss does an AOE, its the healers fault.
if a DPS dies becos the boss attacked a DPS, its the tanks fault
If the tank dies for whatever reason, its the healers fault
if anyone dies becos the healer is OOM, its the DPSes fault
anything you wanna add is bullcrap
although i know you're just trolling i'm gonna correct it so ppl who read this don't take this crap for true.
dieing of boss aoe is only healers fault if it is unavoidable and has to be healed through else it's dps fault for not moving out (90% of the time) ofc you are expected to have some gear if you get one hitted even the best healer can't pull you through.
it's tank job to make enough threat so boss dies b4 he enrages and healers don't go oom, anything more is a nice bonus but is strictly not needed. dps pulling from tank is always dps fault, raid wipe bc boss enraged or healers went oom bc to low dps bc dps was threat capped is tanks fault (again rarely)
might just be the healers was occupied with keeping retarded dps alive who shouldn't be taking dmg or tank just takes to much dmg (undergeared, didn't use cd where he should os+3drakes fe, or didn't move out of the bad stuff) or just bc to few healers were brought.
i'll agree with you on the 4th unless it is bc dps was threat capped.

There are a lot of dps that do not know there job. I have tanked more then a few groups with clueless dpsers. I have had DK dpsers in frost in VH H, hunters pulling mobs in Nexus H, Pallys going crazy with threat abilities in UK H. Warriors using taunts.
What I hate is how easy it is to blame the tank or healer, when a lot of times it is the dps either not doing there job because they do not fully understand it or doing a real poor job of it. I even had a DK use death grip on the final boss in UK H while standing next to my healer.
I guess what I am saying is cut the tank some slack, it is not easy being a tank and try doing some things that can make the tanks job easier. Staying out of Defensive Stance, Righteous Fury, or Frost. Attack the marked targets. If a mob gets away from a group pull, herding the mob back to the tank is always the best way to go. If the tank isn't pulling there is a reason why, don't try to pull the mobs yourself unless you want to be the tank. Finally don't use taunts on a boss.
And Please turn off your stupid PET GROWLS! lol, that is truly one of the most annoying things I have ran into as a tank.

DPS can't pull threat. Period. If boss doesn't die in time because dps was threat capped - that is tank's fault. Of course it all depends on dps level. If tank can't hold aggro against 3K dps - that's a bad tank. If dps pulls threat after doing over 10K dps - that's dps fault of not watching aggro, there is no way tank can produce that much threat.
P.S. Over 10000 dps is an actual number one can easily achieve when attempting Hodir hard mode and using bloodlust early in the fight.
Tanks get buffs from npcs on this fight too, 10k+ TPS sure beats 10k DPS :P
