Echoing this. For a DPS main, healing and tanking looks extremely difficult due to the perceptions of the extra responsibility compared to DPS, plus if you mess up, it's a heck of a lot easier to notice you're messing up. However, people like me thrive upon that pressure, and makes it easier for us. Difficulty is a very subjective thing. To counter those DPS mains who find DPS easy as pie, I find DPS very difficult. I'm used to the heavy responsibilities associated with being tank or healer, take that pressure away from me and I start to crumble because of my psyche.
