Idea to make DF less annoying for DPS.

Sadly SE hasn't grasped that. Healers are at their worst, and several tanks have seen better days. So everyone's playing dps right now.

It honestly doesn't matter what they'll do to tanks and healers, they will be less "popular" either way. It's like this in the majority of MMOs that have Healer/Tank/DPS triad.

It get's skewed further when player behavior makes the ones playing tank or healer not want to do group content on that role. The problem is going to exist no matter what SE does because it's a player created issue.

Pretty much this. People want to play "resposibility free" and also "cooler looking" jobs. And as much as tanks and healers are simple to play gameplay wise, both roles are mentally exhausting because of other players attitude towards them, and SE can't fix that. I love tanking and healing but gods after some dungeon runs I'm questioning my choices.

increasing dps would not lower the queue time, people would just switch over to dps instead until it got back to 10-15 min queue times, which seems to be about the limit before some go tank/healer instead.
