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?
