The thing is that it gets to the point where people are being discouraged to play tanks or healers because they aren't pushing out enough dps. When people start pulling for tanks because they want to get done with the dungeon faster, or they pressure tanks to drop tank stance, that's what discourages people from wanting to play these roles. And I think this is why most people shy away from playing tank/healer.

We should encourage people to play optimally, but this has also caused tanking and healing to become more stressful than ever. The reason why maximum dps output from tanks and healers is optimal is because of the current nature of content.

What Kazrah mentioned was a possible solution to make playing tank/healer less stressful, and in turn encourage more people to play tank/healer.
