As a healer, is it my job to DPS? A new perspective.

[Feyona]

I may have misjudged you, because what you are saying is actually mostly correct, and I agree with. The thing is my stance is summed up here:

My issue is not with people not DPSing, my issue is with people who refuse to DPS on principle, and won't even acknowledge it as something that is part of their toolkit.

This is true up to the bit where you say 'play their jobs properly' as it assumes healers were intended to dps and I dont think this is the case. Healer roles are just being optimized by those with high skill level or have very good groups to play in, the group set up should not be ignored when mentioning space to dps. It isnt always skill level thats a factor in allowing for optimal play.
