    Can someone show me any tank in any duty that could do 9k dps?

    I know its an extreme case, but it clearly shows the healers dps potential and not only they do more personal dps but it also scales better with buffs.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    Gunbreakers can do 9k+ in eden savage.

    I think looking at 'max DPS' is misleading and that looking at percentiles is better, because 'max DPS' can be one guy's weird one off. But since you asked...

    The highest GNB i found is 98% and does 8.4k with buffs and 7.9k without them.

    Funny enough, that GNB used 19 skills in his DPS rotation, and that WHM used only 5 for DPS.
    What is even funnier is.
    WHM had 27.2 CPM using 18 skills total while GNB had 36.2 CPM using 33 skills total.
    But thats not all, majority of CPM executed by WHM is one single skill (56%), where GNB had 9-5% distribution on majority of his buttons, meaning healer that did 9k dps spammed ONE SINGLE BUTTON for majority of time and still surpassed GNB with his finger breaking combos.

    And yet there are still people who dont understand why we have this thread in the first place, go figure that out.
