Its like when I see Tanks with all Slaying gear and i get tired of having to overheal to keep up because they refuse to be a dang tank. DPSing is a side thing, not a required one. Its nice to have, but don't feel forced to make up for overall low party DPS.
Sadly, many players still think like this.

Once you start looking beyond role labels and start looking at resources such as mitigation, HP pools, DPS potential, and time spent performing actions, you can do extremely well.

Things like categorically refusing to DPS as a healer or even automatically assuming that tanks using Slaying accessories will be bad at their job really hold players back and make the game appear more cookie-cutter than it arguably already is.
