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

Funny... funny. Unfortunately, no dps with that kind of utility will ever actually be expected to use it. People don't want BLM's using Apoc, an amazing utility spell, because it interferes with their deeps without a proc. Similarly, no one expects or cares if a SMN use Virus or E4E, and pragmatically speaking, people don't even WANT MNK using Mantra.

Any class with that utility won't be expected or encouraged to use it under any circumstances, because 'MUH DEEPS'. Thanks for the chuckle though!

That's not true at all. I don't know what groups you play with, but I've seen a ton of people get really mad at SMNs that don't use their single greatest utility, their battle res. As a Monk player, during A11S prog I was actually coordinating with healers, and timing my Mantra during high healer burst phases, like the DPS photon during pyretic, or that hell part in phase 4 where the 7 man photon comes out followed by two whirlwinds. My mantra became part of the rotation that our healers relied upon to clear the fight, whenever the healers stated that they needed it most. This is in addition to our SMN using virus on the Phase 4 Laser X sword so that our DRK could eat it without the WAR stacking with them.

Apoc is also an incredible tool that sees a lot of use whenever a player dies and needs protection during a boss's 'limit break' move where they smash the party. DPS that do not use their inherent utility should be instructed to start using their kit to the fullest of their potential.
