High DPS: What's the point?

[StubHub]

I think the way they did Pharos first boss is a more correct way to make a group consider DPS. Where adds are spawned at certain %'s and with higher gear they can come relatively quickly. It is atleast giving the group a choice in how they want to consider their DPS. Overgear without consideration to halting DPS and you may possibly be overrun. Overgear some more and you may have the choice to burn through with the chance to plow through it. Either way, it still leaves the group with a choice in if they want to push DPS. The insta kill at hitting a threshold at an undesired period designated by the devs is lazy in my opinion.

DPS management is the latest mechanic to get a spotlight. Otherwise, higher dps - faster clears.
