Ranged DPS role is about to be excluded from all content

[Dogempire]

75% is a good expectation for someone in Savage, right? I think so. Should someone playing 50% go in and expect to win? Savage is for above average players, right? I think 75% is fair.

I guess I'm of the mindset that I don't HAVE to be better or even as good as someone playing another job. I don't care if BLM does triple my damage.

I care that my job - the one that makes me happy when I play it - can do the content I want to do.

That is it.

And not every static out there is going to refuse to take a BRD into content because it pulls low-ish DPS... unless that BRD cannot play his/her job.

I mean that's fine, but I don't think it's unreasonable to want high skill to mean high contribution.

It's just dumb that you only need a 60th percentile monk to match the damage contribution of a 95th percentile machinist.

Especially since 95th usually means playing extremely well, almost perfectly, and in a BiS set or close to it, and 60th percentile is basically sloppy play but still above average with good gear.
