You're wrong. From my personal experience, this will lead to big toxic shift. I remember HW. And not with Rose-tinted glasses. I remember the rage and toxicity in PF, if you played MNK or PLD, you would get kicked and nobody wanted you. It was hell. People will take Meta, that other people discover, and force it upon throat of others. Happened in HW, in other MMO's etc. ''Gamers'' want the biggest odds for winning. And they're willing to throw other people under bus for that few % more dmg.
