So basically its entirely optional.

Also, a dead dps cant do any damage at all so their job is to dodge. If they get hit healers will ofc, do theirs and heal them, but if they take too much even a good healer cant save them. Also you cant dps or be raised if you fall off the platform. You cant really compare the that with healers dpsing.
