    Players are allowed to have basic expectations. Here are mine.
    • Understand basic arithmetic and inequalities. e.g., 9x100 > 3x100 > 240
    • Don't insult anyone.
    • Don't purposely waste everyone's time.

    DDs who refuse to AoE or who cast only ice spells fall into two categories.
    (A) They don't understand which actions are more effective. If they are in this category, I will ask them to please AoE; or explain the basics of Astral Fire and Umbral Ice.
    (B) They understand which actions are more effective but are willfully choosing not to use them. If they are in this category, they are purposely wasting everyone's time.

    I'm not asking for 99th percentile play. Just that they don't sit there performing single target actions when they could be doing literally three times as much damage per GCD by AoEing. If they understand what actions are more effective, why would they not use the more effective actions.

    That said, I probably wouldn't kick them unless they became hostile. I'd just sit there and judge them while I spam my 1200 potency actions.
