DRG should have a special quest called "how to use heavy thrust"

[MahoSenshi]

But ridding themselves from substantial % of their damage, people directly do that, because prolonged fights burden party resources and sometimes party will fail DPS checks because of it. I know i'm playing the devil's advocate here, but one man's good player is another man's elitist. And OP wasn't talking some obscure shenanigans, but base class mechanics.

Yesterday, i got into EX roulette with a SMN player in eso set, who bringed titan-egi and VERY scarcely used DOTs. After two pulls i left. Does it make me an elitist or just someone who don't want to spend next hour dragging some slacker along?

You did good by leaving, I do that as well and get my face penalty'd. But I don't care, I can do something else for that half an hour instead of carrying someone else who's gonna insult you hard after you've politely asked them to do something that they should already be doing in the first place, such as, in this case, using heavy thrust.

If it helps, I'm against parsers. So much for an elitist, I guess?

It's SMN like that that I usually try assisting... Doesn't help when they don't take it. TBH, I would've either left or consulted with the other players on what to do with him as well. When you're not using over half of your resources to deal damage and you're actively hurting the tank's area(Titan-egi is mainly for solo instance, tanks can do their job better but it's a pain when the Titan steals aggro), you become a massive burden on the rest of the team. Frankly, I wouldn't have been surprised if he was committing the other sin for SMN, having the Titan on Sic instead of Obey
