Tank and Spank

The simplest mmorpg tactic, where a heavily-armed, high health point player (referred to as the tank) draws the enemy's attention and takes all the enemy fire while the rest of the team come in and deal damage to the opposition (referred to as the DPS, the one who delivers the "spank").

Side note: May not always be the best approach in a boss fight with certain mechanics.

Healer: is there any boss mechanics for this fight, do we have to avoid anything or be aware of any attacks?

Tank: No this boss is easy, let's just roll in with the tank and spank

spank and tank

Typical strategy for dealing with bosses in online games such as World of Warcraft. The "tank" character goes up and absorbs most of the boss's damage, while the other characters "spank" the boss by dealing as much damage as possible without distracting the boss from the tank.

Anything I should know about this boss?
He has an aggro reset at 50%, but otherwise he's just spank and tank.
