    And a good laugh, thanks.

    Surprisingly enough I was not trolling here. Name something that is a "responsibility" of a dps that can make or break the party that a tank or healer does not already have. Everybody already has to: Dodge attacks. Tanks have to manage mob placement, mob enmity, track every party members enmity, know mob attack rotations so they use CD's at the right time, watch stacks to switch, etc. Healers have to keep everyone alive, keep a few buffs up, manage aoe slows and defensive buffs. Dps MIGHT feed a snake a slime. Using an LB isn't even a responsibility.

    Again, what is a responsibility that DPS have that is their own?
