Final Fantasy XIV and a Culture of Enabling

The thing is as stated the potential still exists. Though the quantifying remake is person dependent. Personally wiping in normal content is already unlikely even with low dps or underperforming tank / healers.

Though for normal content a tank or healer not performing their role it is still possible for someone else to pick up the slack to make up for the difference. Which is the same principle of dps doing lower damage the group is able to make up the difference so it does not matter if the content gets cleared in regards of the dps because all that matters for the most part from what I understand is the group performance. Though the same Principle still stands for the other roles, and that is my point. If we break down the standard to a core principle of completion through group effort the same standard should apply across the board. Though for the most part people are far more understanding of dps underperforming over tanks and healers. Which is understandable but at the core kind of unfair. I prefer to apply an equal standard across the board when it comes to performance.

Healers losing MP could have various factors contributing to it, like tank overpulling or healers not using their resource wisely, not just dps being low, and it takes the entire party having low dps, including the other dps as well.

So, no, the standard is still the same. But low dps doesn't affect the party like tanks losing aggro or healers not healing. The latter two has immediate effect more than simply fight taking longer or healer losing MP.

And here is the other thing, if the dps gets so low that the party cannot get through a mob, then of course that's a problem, but considering healers and tanks have good dps, dps being lower than them doesn't necessarily mean anything in normal content.
