I wouldn't entirely agree with this. Don't get me wrong. DPS jobs definitely have responsibility and they are pressured to perform to the best of their potential.

Tanks are expected to know how to navigate through dungeons, where to position safely, and maintain aggro. Healers are expected to keep you alive, and fix any mistakes other players may make. On top of that, they are expected to maximize dps output as well. Tanks are asked to drop tank stance; healers are asked to stance dance. It's efficient, but it does add a layer of difficulty to the job. That isn't to say that it doesn't come naturally to some of us though.

I think one of the underlying reasons why dps jobs are so popular is because they are less stressful to play. But I'm not saying DPS players don't go through any stress at all.
