How would you break it to someone that their DPS is awful?

If it's really bad DPS.

Yes, it's bad.


(T9, up to golem phase, no deaths until wipe)

Can you avoid it by having them tank? Or are they set on learning the DPS job? If it's the latter, maybe just give them links to rotations and say something along the lines of "Here are a few links you might find useful."

We are trying a workaround with them OTing with DPS accessories. It was a last-minute change though, so no real practice with that strategy yet. (Though, the few runs we did have with it turned out a bit better than when they were DPS.)

But a workaround is still a workaround. I want to help them get better with their DPS class. They even went through the trouble of getting an Animus relic for the job, so it'd be a shame for that effort to go to waste.
