The playerbase especially in high end only care about damage.

Hard has been kept out of even joining PFs for an entire tier. All because danger was so much better. That was 1 job.

You now have half a role doing substantially less damage than the others. They will be kept out of prog parties for that reason alone.

No point moaning about a dead job. This balancing dps around res utility is a flawed system and dps resses just need to be removed at this point.

Pct and blm will be the only casters wanted soon enough. Especially with the bad players who will blame not clearing on not being a meta comp….
