Healers that don't want to DPS are like DPSes who refuse to move out of AoEs.

[Atos]

You realize that the DPS gain from a healer casually DPSing is more than what 2 DPS could achieve if they both would up their performance from 50th to 90th percentile? >_> And that food is a completely insignificant gain compared to even one DPS upping their performance in such a way?

Every time I read that argument, I get the feeling people are completely oblivious about just how strong healers actually are in every aspect of the game.

Numbers please. Methinks when you say "casually DPSing" you mean "all-out DPSing", which would use a lot of MP you'd otherwise want for healing. and that the DPS that you're comparing the healer to aren't very good.
