It's still entirely a community-driven thing. PF isn't the 'correct' tool for kills, it's just the most commonly used one on NA servers.
Exactly, and I maintain that PF is the primary tool for completing the harder encounters because DF is broken. And all the people in here trying to convince me otherwise have actually made my point for me. It's so broken that they don't even consider it a viable tool with which to get anything accomplished, and they are so confused by the idea that it could become useful that they can only defend their own personal mannerisms, even though those were never called in to question.
