Meanwhile id say paladin is one of the easiest classes to play, lets not pretend its a difficult class.I am pretty sure DRG and MNK require the most skill out of any job in this game due to their exposure to AoEs, and the relatively complex skill rotations / awareness required to do optimal DPS.
Healers can have a hard time too, but that is typically dependant upon how poorly your group performs.
Yeah its so easy to hold agro when you pull 3 groups of trash at once and BLM with relics start AOEing mobs . I almost falls asleep its so easy , flash ... flash ... zzzzzz... flash . run to next 3 groups .
Lets be real here in order to get the absolute maximum out of a class dps is the most demanding. And melee more so than ranged. Sure just dpsing is faceroll but getting the max you toon can offer is not. As for "blowing my cd's at the right time". Dps have no cd's? InterestingI think you a very wrong in this assessment. Healers by far have the hardest jobs from Titan through Coil. Also, Tanks have to stay out of circles, while maintaining threat, keeping our rotations active (for war) and blowing all our defensive and offensive CD's at the right time. I think the correct statement would be "melee dps have a harder time than ranged dps". To state that dps have an easier role over tanking/healing is absurd.
Ok, lets be real. DPS is only accountable to themselves and the AI.
Healers have the same as dps, plus worry about everyone else's health.
Tanks have the same, and worry about threat (ie the entire party) on most of the time multiple mobs and make the healers job easier/possible with good use of cool downs. You position yourself to maximize dps, I position the mobs for everyone's safety/benefit.
As to blowing cd's: Again, these are for your own benefit of damage dealing. Healers do it to balance out extra damage taken or to mitigate damage. Tanks do such to help hold threat AND to help the healers out to avoid/compensate/recover from damage spikes.
So yeah, I think you are HIGHLY over valuing your role or the undervaluing others role.
You mean its hard when other classes are not doing their job/ playing recklessly? newsflash THIS APPLIES TO EVERY ROLE.
And pulling 3 groups of trash is called a speed run, you are making it more difficult on purpose to shorten time.
Unless you are not being sarcastic which i thought u were... can never tell in text :P.
