Why do so many people FAIL at dps.

[Kaurie]

You can literally just use a couple of skills, and still do more DPS than most people in dungeons... simply by actually using skills.

Once had a SMN in my FC who was pulling 500 DPS, so I figured I'd see if I could help them. Before doing that, I tested myself.

I wielded a ilvl 90 book, but kept the rest of my 180 gear on. I then parsed on a dummy with just applying dots. I didn't use Ruin/Fester etc. Between my pet and I, we did 450 DPS. It was at that time I realized I wouldn't be able to help my buddy.
