Tank asked me not to bubble?

We gotta stop giving tank advice in this forum. This is a PRIEST forum, not a PROT PALLY HELP forum. Maybe we should make a thread on the Paladin forums...

If a paladin tank is OoMing and complaining that it's because of the bubble, then they're stupid and should pull more.
Just a note on this point, since many Priests are starting to use this counter...
If a Paladin OOMs, and pulls more next time without communicating it explicitly, they're likely to cop a 5#17storm of flak from their Priest for overpulling unexpectedly.
Whatever the outcome, there just needs to be communication between the tank and healer. If a tank complains, the Priest just needs to tell them to pull more, and say that they're up for it, rather than "STFU n00b do ur job!". If a tank ooms, they just need to warn that they'll pull more, or to warn DPS that they're changing seals and that threat might be an issue, etc.

In current dungeons, you have to really stretch yourself to overpull. I once pulled the entire first floor of UK and the Shaman healer was more than able to keep me up. AD didn't even Proc. I think he was down to 23% mana at the end of it.
LFD run, no previous experience with each other, though admittedly, we were both 5.5Kgs.
Paladins going OOM because of Disc bubbles need, as loathe as I am to use the expression, to learn to play. You should not be able to blame your mana supply, or lack of it, on your healer.

I completely agree. Even in VoA when pulling extra isn't an option, it's just learning how to manage your mana. /gasp Generally I consider "over pulling" pulling more than your able to keep aggro on. That's assuming as you keep pulling the idiot dps try there darndest to make you loose aggro. I find it works best if you get a head start on the dps, then they have to catch up and can't go pew pew as you run to the next mob.

VoA doesn't require AoE threat, so Paladins can just drop their costly AoE abilities out of their rotation. I was more thinking the toss up between taking just one side of the first pull in UK or both sides, for example.
I've run across healers who've left party because the tank aggroed both sides before, but not before saying that the 'tank should l2play'.

No, you only need a tank or healer with dungeon-appropriate gear. You don't need to pull that much to strain a healer and/or tank in blues and a few ilvl200 epics.
