    I'm all for improvements, but good tools in the hands of amateurs don't often produce solid results. Now, if those same amateurs show more of a willingness to learn and face challenges rather than cry nerf, perhaps those good tools could be even better?

    A lot of people do sarcastically fire off the old "git gud" bit, but honestly, the bar is already set so low in most content that that's really just the basis of the improvements many of us talk about.

    Let me paint it differently:

    From guildhests to Savage content, I strive to not just be capable of doing it, but doing it well. If something needs to be learned or be mindful of, I take the steps to know it. I PRACTICE: If I'm good at it, then I want to stay sharp. If I'm not, I want to get better. This isn't the least bit difficult; do you know why? Because it was a habit I formed while leveling. I didn't wait til endgame to start paying attention and trying to do well. For that reason "gitting gud" isn't a challenge or an answer to everything. It was just something I made a habit out of. The rest was easy after that.

    This. This times a hundred. Thousand. Million. Infinity. This is the only thing I really ask of my static, and the only thing I ask of myself. The drive to improve, whether or not one can already be considered "good" is IMO better than any dps a person currently has.
