I noticed often that DPS do not use their the skills that increase their dps and some also do not use certain skills like Heavy Thrust or the ones where they put a debuff so X or Y type of attack (slashing, piercing etc) can deal more damage, which increases the overall dps of the group.

I agree that healers that are doing nothing during combat, should dps, I do it aswell and it helps the group, but I feel that we should also talk about underpreforming dpsers and how we can help them improve. You dont need a tool to see that some of the dpsers are underpreforming, but maybe a official parser could help this community.
I've never seen a healer getting kicked of flamed for not dpsing. If a healer just heals me if he has to and otherwhise just jumps around or stares in the air, i will make him heal.

I don't understand how someone can just stand around as healer and wait until he has to heal a bit, thats just damn boring.
