If you honestly believe DPS and tanks aren't criticised for lackluster damage... I don't know where to even begin. The Tales of the Duty Finder is littered with people mocking bad DPS players. Furthermore, let's stop the hyperbole. A DPS who can't reach 1k in Solm Al or Balesar's Wall isn't sub-par, they are garbage and plenty would kick them. Regardless, why is the response to bad players "I'll be a bad too!" That's the equivalent of saying, "everyone else go a D, so I won't bother striving for better." When I go into any content, I want to play my role efficiently. On tank and healers, that involves switching stances wherever applicable and on DPS it involves aoes and executing a proper rotation.
