  2. When you are a culinarian tank main xd, great vid Syd, I remember when we met and you taught me some tricks as tanks too, you got everything for a tank to start learning in this video. I cannot emphasize enough how important it is to rotate cool downs as a tank, definitely make sure to pay attention to the duration of the skill as well, as it does have diminishing return once you pop too many cooldowns at the same time 🙂

    Great vid Syd, keep it up <3
