    You don't seem like a new player or something. You have over 100 posts and are level 100.

    Of course you won't get banned for dying to mechanics. People go into daily roulettes expecting all the players to die to everything. Not because of it being hard, but because a lot of the players in the duty are new, first timers, returning players, playing an unfamiliar job, or don't fully understand the game yet (mechanic snapshotting, cast bars, common mechanic indicators).

    Story content is designed with the idea that these sort of players (new and returning players) are doing it. So, they certainly wouldn't ban over it.

    DPS rotations are like that. Especially melee DPS and their positionals. They cause tunnel vision and that was always part of their difficulty. Healers, tanks and ranged physical DPS don't have this quite so much, especially when you get used to them, although personally I find SMN and PCT to not cause tunneling either given their simplicity.
    Players who black list me to avoid be in endgame content
    I see you're on an EU world. Whenever I play there for even the briefest period, I encounter toxicity in Duty Finder. I find there to be more people in the EU that are sweaty and toxic compared to the NA region. You can queue for a trial or normal raid roulette and the moment you do something they perceive as "wrong", they call it out very, very bluntly. I was in an expert roulette there and they berated a poor sprout tank completing a dungeon for the first time. They insulted them all the way through to the end of it ripping apart everything they were doing. It was hard to watch. Never see it in the NA region at all.
    since then i haven't tried to do any endgame content when i know that i will never able to complete them.
    When you are about 20 levels above it, you can solo it using the Unrestricted setting. I guarantee you can enter the coils as a level 100 Pictomancer and kill the bosses in 1 hit each. You may not be able to complete them immediately on release, but you can eventually when they are several years old.

    Well i'm not a new player and i have played FFXIV since 2013 (although not all the time and i have being subbed for 2490 days in total currently) and currently i only play FFXIV 2-4 days a week to do few normal daily and weekly stuff.

    But i can't anything about feeling that everytime i die in any normal group content i could ended up making some players angry and mass report me for being bad player.

    I only play as ninja, dancer and pictomancer these days and my main is currently ninja but recently i have being playing as dancer for while and few days ago i started to play as pictomancer again but with all of them i sometimes start to focus to the DPS rotation and ended up forgetting paying attention to the combat it self.

    I haven't played as other DPS jobs i have at level 100 for while now and i havne't played with other DPS jobs that are under level 100 for while either.

    I haven't played as summoner since 5.0, i stopped playing as healer since release of 7.0 when they are really boring to play in normal group content and i stopped playing as tank months ago due to fear getting banned for being a bad tank.

    I did solo The Coils of Bahamut raids back in 6.0 and currently i do 2.0 and 3.0 raids and extreme trials for the weekly Wondrous Tails solo.

    What i mean about not able to complete any of the endgame content is when they are new.

    Just like now with AAC Light-heavyweight M1-M4 savage raids, i simply won't even try to do them when i'm simply terrible in FFXIV and i know that i will never able to complete them.
