hmm...I would argue against your claim, because if you really think about it, the user is responsible for the performance of his or her computer.... it can easily be remedied by installing new components or replacing the computer all together, so the user can do something, its just a failure to act

Sure, you can factor in the lag... but I think you can still tank to some degree with it. I know I can. I might be blindly pressing the keys to Mock/Deva but I know it'll go through eventually so that I can keep the aggro. As a tank your job isn't to damage but to make sure you cast Mock and/or Deva when its cooldown has ended. And as long as I am not soloing I can expect a cleric to help me heal while I also press the HP stone key.

Yep, I agree with loveless.
It is possible - at least for me and loveless it seems...:/ - to tank holding aggro on a laggy computer. But this has to be done by not completely relying on the clerics that they will heal you and even if the aggro's lost, your party members will be fine.

Calculate the CD time and use deva and mock efficiently, using potions and stones at times. This way, even if you lost aggro, you can hold it again and not putting too much burden on the clerics.

Another agreement my computer can't run fiesta well at all and i still tank most guys in a kq although its hard me even though i have a pure end fighter things in mar kq still take me fast and the clerics are poor>.> healing most people but not the fighter ...makes little sense i buff myself with scolls while everyone is running around with buffs from clerics ..its kinda sad i shouldnt always have to asked specially in a kq party
