I get where you're coming from, but your role in a party isn't just to dps, you're role is also hate control, buff and debuff and improving the performance of everyone else in your party. You may feel this is carrying or "the right way" and that's not what I'm saying at all. What I AM saying is that if all you worry about is the numbers, that's shortsighted and only caters to your own enjoyment. MMO's are about groups, not individuals. You want to do the aoe thing? That's fine, but make sure the party you are working with is prepared for it. Heck, could be fun to do a party based around nothing but aoe. But don't feel that your job is that and everyone else needs to step up to your game level. Life doesn't work that way, neither do games.
