No they are NOT OPTIONAL! role actions are an illusion of chose and badly designed. Please do not use poorly made systems to support bad play. A DPS should be using enmity suppression skills to help out high differences in ilevels for random experts, and even with top end gear, you can use suppression to allow the tank to dps more to get it done quicker. Saying they are optional would be no different then telling a healer it is optional to heal people.

I would too and have done so in the past.



2000 coming from a SMN in aoe situations? what they where doing was having a nonexistant APM, and not using aetherflow properly.

actually it doesn't matter, 2000 DPS was gimp levels from a single target boss from a SMN in i250 gear in hw, and SMN aoe could be in the 5k-8k then
Who honestly knows what on earth was going on with them, they could have been AFKing and watching netflix at the same time which I tend to see a lot in casual content...players caring enough to queue for a dungeon to get their rewards, but not caring enough to actually pay attention and try to be competent at their own jobs.

The run had no deaths and was relatively smooth, but I still felt like the AST and I were doing all of the work in killing stuff down fast enough (especially myself). It's just a sad thing to come across, I'm putting in 100% of my effort in content and you get people doing barely 30% to 50% sometimes. It makes me want to stop trying so hard, but at the same time, I can't do that. I like doing a good job, lol.
