The Final Reason on why we have more DPS than Tanks or Healers

[Paladinleeds]

I prefer to DPS because the rotations(Or in the case of my MCH, priorities) are more frenetic and complex than any healing or tanking job. I like fast-paced jobs that require you to always be doing something, and tanking and healing don't provide that for me. Tanks are just too slow in general for me to enjoy, and I just don't like healing because I don't find it fun.

I must say I'm the opposite. I find tanks and healers more enjoyable because they're much more reactionary. Something goes wrong, as tank/healer you have to see it and adapt. DPS I find is usually just playing the dance routine of buttons, which I don't enjoy. I think most people prefer to be able to play to a routine though rather than having to be ready to react to when it hits the fan. They just keep trucking along.

And that's cool, man! I daresay, every class has some level of reaction involved- I don't just use Dismantle or Rend Mind off cooldown, I wait for tank busters or phase transitions to chuck a wrench at the boss's head so that it's helpful. I don't promote for MP regain as a routine- I look over at my party's bars and see the healer(s) have low MP and pop it, essentially doing the same "check bars and react" that they're doing. I check enmity when I'm dropping hot wildfires on something so that I don't pull off the tank- checking enmity just like a tank is doing. And I don't just use Blank or Suppressive Fire off-cooldown(unless it's on a boss, then blanking/suppressive is okay, unless it's stunnable, then just blank), I wait to use them to interrupt, or shove a caster back into a group with the rest of the mobs a tank is dealing with. A DPS can and should adapt just as much as anyone else in the party- it's just generally noticed less by everyone else when the DPS either excels or falters.

But you, large blue fellow, you do what you enjoy. Same as I will!
