The DPS is not the Healer

[Fawkes]

It basically comes down to party decision, if any of the following is not true, then pulling a small group is wiser.

Q: "Can we do large pull?"
Tank: "Am I gear enough that my HP won't keep dropping like crazy?"
DPS: "Am I doing enough DPS that the mobs will die fast?"
Healer: "Can I keep up with the tank HP before my mana dies?"

It's more like:

Tank: Am I geared enough?
Healer: Can I keep up with the tank?
Tank and Healer: Are the DPS terrible?


There are no DPS players that will say "Hey wait a minute, don't pull big, I'm bad!" Spamming AoE on a small pack or a big pack is the exact same gameplay, nothing changes for them. It is a decision for the healer and tank to make, not the DPS.

You got it so right.
