my SCH was one Low Level Roulette away from 50

Earlier today, my SCH was one Low Level Roulette away from 50. I queue up, got Cutter's Cry. In the area before first boss, one of the DPS, a MNK dies to Shrapnel Bomb. They respawn and makes their way back. Before the MNK could even get back and me buffing the PLD, the idiot immediately pulls the boss, locking the MNK out. Adds come out,FFXIV gil I place Selene in middle then start kiting the adds.

Because we are down a DPS and the other DPS, a Bard, wasn't great, it took much longer to hurt the boss. More adds come out, much more. Somehow, Selene died because I was running around and can only Swiftcast/Adloquium so often. With Selene dead, a crap DPS taking forever to kill boss, and me too busy running around, PLD dies then BRD and I'm all alone in a pit infested with angry ants. The boss still had about 25% HP left.

What do I do? Just kept running and spamming Bio and Ruin II with a huge and growing train of ants after me. The PLD tells me to just wipe. Fuck that. I'll show them not to wait. The PLD rage quit, I eventually kill the boss, the DPS cheered, I ask an LS mate to queue up in progress, we finish the whole dungeon faster than that PLD's wait penalty, I get 2 commendations and hit 50.
Also got Demon Robe of Healing later that night.

some pretty split opinions on chain pulling

Seems like there are some pretty split opinions on chain pulling.

It does make sense to buy ffxiv gil me to keep things moving and to give the tank a chance to build hate on the next group without making the party wait for it.

Then again,

It does have a high chance of using up TP/MP reserves, depending on execution.

We're able to see everyone's MP, so the tank should be able to watch that to see if it's safe to do.
We don't get to see everyone's TP (yet..?) So that aspect's a bit more of a guess. Unless a bunch of Goads/Songs are being tossed around. Well, even then, still blind.

I'll be sticking on the side of caution for the most part (not chain pulling regularly).
Unless, of course, the party's just eager. Then it's John-F***ing-Madden time!

Any healer-mains want to weigh in on this?
