Are tanks a scapegoat for performance issues?

[Ilan]

Id say its shared blame between tank and healer just the nature of the game ha ,its a reason why 55 percent of players play dps

It has to be blamed on DPS also, if they deal damage like a wet noodle and stuff just doesn't die because tanks and healer run out of cd's/mana after a while. Everyone in the group is responsible, bad tanks and healers are just harder to carry.

Oh trust me I know when dps are screwing up hence zurvan extreme shouldnt even see way cannon in second phase but so far every group Ive been in has seen it, I at the point now where I think lots of dps just do their combos

That's not entirely a DPS screw up; it's the community that makes it mandatory to skip phases. You can see Soar in the beginning, you can see extra wave cannons. If the boss dies, he dies.

I personally feel as though if people want certain things done, then why do they put up PF groups? Why not just recruit people that YOU know who are capable of pushing through phases? Why set it up for a PUG and the complain about seeing two Demon's Claw? I understand it's a farm, but farms are getting the kill/item and do it again. People mistake "farm" for "grind".

If the community wants a high standard for DPS, that's a good thing. Less leeches getting carried.

PF is the tool for recruiting for a specific purpose like that. So... That's why. Also, farm parties aren't just about killing it. They're about doing it as fast as possible so that you can get more kills done in less time. Farming should be efficient. People that join farms and underperform are the worst.

All fights would be way better if you couldn't skip anything. When i remember these "skip soar or disband" partys i'm still facepalming because most of the people who opened the partys are people who don't do anything to skip it because they hit like a wet noodle (counts for ANY class) and even mess up a simple mechanic like soar.

Point is that most of the people in this community are to lazy to improve in any way, they want plain easy stuff where they just have to press 1,2,3. The sad part is that SE goes their way instead of telling them to git gud.
