Shock horror. People don't respond well to lazy players looking to skimp by content by having them do all the work. Hate to break it to you, but if I have 300 casts in a fight and you have 100. I've done three times the work and may be a little salty about it.

It's an example of how necessitating healer DPS in any content wouldn't be good design. It leaves no wiggle room. That doesn't mean healers should get to be lazy because dungeons are easy.

This is purely subjective. I find healing classes and dps classes easy and tanking harder and stresses me out. You are giving an opinion and stating it as fact. Furthermore, it is a bit whiny on top of it's subjective nature. If you don't like what the "difficulty or perceived busy nature of a class/role change classes. Play what you call easy mode. Don't complain someone else is "doing less than you".

Furthermore the level of hubris displayed by players telling the head of a game that he has no clue what HIS design intentions are is simply astonishing.

No one is saying he doesn't know what his design intentions are, but he has a very bizarre way to implement those intentions. If that is hubris, then so be it.

Shock Horror, stop acting like i am your target. I always play to my very best, be it as stupidly easy content like sastasha or anything else.

The only thing i am against is the mindest that people think they have to force this playstyle onto random people they meet in DF.

A side effect of SE removing/simplifying stats, I'd wager. Not sure if they realized the can of worms they opened with that, though.

Did you even watch the video the post is about. Yoshi said that healers need to dps for high end raiding content.....

That's exactly how I feel. Unless the mana efficiency of healing and/or dps is significantly reduced, we're going to see even more demand for healers to dps.

They need to dps, yes, but the content is purposely not tuned for it because if it was we get Gordias again. Extreme dps checks with almost no wiggle room.

Intentions are irrelevant. The only thing that matters is what is on your hotbar and how it works.

Does this mean I can stop using aoe attacks as a melee dps? It stresses me out. As long as I single target I'm doing my job.
