DPS is the job of DPS.

This game is becoming more n more like WoW mentality everyday it's getting scary.

Look if you want a party that speed runs content, healers that DPS and DPS that use AoE to their fullest extent then pop up a PF and put it into the description, instead of trying to force people to your way of playing.

I remember this mentality in WoW raids, but not as much in dungeons.
So, based on my personal experience (which doesn't amount to much as it's all anecdotal), I would be led to believe that FF14's mentality might actually be worse.
And considering what I've seen my husband, who always mains a tank in games he plays, encounter doing leveling dungeons & trials, it doesn't make it seem any better... :/

Pretty sure that WoW tanks have to focus more on mitigation because boss melee hits aren't fluff like in this game.

What I meant by the WoW mentality is the constant silence and need for faster runs, not talking to each other, pug everything and everything else. The game became far too hand me everything so i don't have to work for it mentality, if you played it in Vanilla it was a time waster, it took ages to get anywhere and we were fine with that. You had to earn your gear, aka dungeons only dropped blue, raids dropped purple, blues were extremely rare outside of a dungeon, purples were exceptionally rare.
