    Rift raids where very highly tuned. Support added a lot in boss fights. Bards made a massive difference in high end raids. 1.0 tier 3 Hammerknell, tier 2 in the expansion also. tier 3 was added but I moved to ARR before that. The difference of having and not having support was blatently noticeable.

    Also support was a lot more than you claim, reduced damage to raid, increase stats, damage debuffs, regens etc. Buffs you didn't "activate when needed" you kept them up constantly plus DPSd. Yes, support DPSd also, not as much as pure DPS of course. Pure DPS would be hitting in tier 2 30k single target, support around 18-20k.
