The Art of Pulling in Five-Mans

The lack of skilled tanks is obvious.  After all, the Solo MMO Player had a second tank fall off a cliff while in a dungeon finder raid this week.  WOW Insider columnist Allison Robert has started a two part series on how to pull during a five-man.  The first article is about assessing the situation before a pull.

The next article is about the pulls as they are happening.
