Even tho it should be said that those people have no place in savage or extreme farming parties in the first place. It is harsh, I know, but we are talking about the hardest content the game has to offer. If you are not skilled enough to perform to your very best in a farm group, then join training parties and learn your job and the fight.
As soon as someone mastered that, there will be no forcing or stressing anymore, since the person will know what to do and when!
Unfortunately, a large portion of the community grants healers a built in excuse whereas the same courtesy is rarely afforded tanks and especially not DPS. I liken it to tanks who stay in Shield/Defiance/Grit for the entirety of a fight. Even at the more casual level, this is generally frowned upon yet healers who barely touch Cleric get a pass. Of course, all of the only applies to people who have content on farm. No one should expect optimal performance when people are still learning or getting comfortable with a new fight. But even a friend of mine called it arrogant to turn away heal only healers/demand DPS unless you're in a hardcore/world first caliber group regardless of how many clears. I'll never understand that mindset. Expecting healers to DPS isn't "I want orange numbers on FFlogs or GTFO." It's "I want you to equally contribute and improve with the group." FFXIV just isn't a game where that's possible if you only heal.
