What are the most common reasons people don't dps?

[Tridus]

Considering one of the two or three prime arguments not to deal damage is "not my job", let's look at this little gem I experienced just now:



Getting people back on their feet could be considered the healer's job, should I have just let them lie down on the floor? Healers weren't exactly doing it. So why, using the same mindset, should I?

Using the same mindset, you shouldn't. Your primary job is DPS. Verraise is not DPS. Therefore, you shouldn't do it.

Which is why that mindset is absurd and ridiculous.
