Leader as a role

Main article: Instance grouping guide for a leader

In most dungeons or raids, the leader is expected to organize the group in some way and provide initial direction before a fight. In 5-man groups, only the game mechanic identified leader can usually mark targets, so it is customary to make that person the official leader. In larger groups, combat tactics during a fight are sometimes split between the leader and the main assist or given exclusively to the main assist.
