I'd have to see a dps argument going on in every second dungeon for this to be true, and I've never seen anything of the sort.
    He did not specify if these were all in seperate runs. Maybe in some raids there were two low output dps calling out. It was his project, and unfortunately, the sample size is small, but 100 runs take awhile. I would try this test myself, but unfortunately, being on PS4 does not allow me to.

    Tbh, these numbers do not surprise me, since I come from Aether data center. A1/2 is it's own little level of hell lately, with almost all issues I see coming from DPS lately. There have been runs where I've felt that unless I can DPS full time as healer, we can't even come close. Alarums don't get killed, dps don't dodge. I even saw .5 come in at 70% health on #1 recently.

    You could be seeing a much different game on a japanese server though. As I understand, clear rates are higher over there, and it is common practice to use PF for learning, and DF for clears, meaning more serious players in DF. There seems to be a real, "You carry me! And you'd best keep quiet about it!" attitude on Aether.

    I don't think it needs testing in that manner. Do you really see that kind of aggro over dps in every second dungeon? bad dps, maybe, but not a lot of complaining or callouts or fights starting.

    I can only assume those figures had the same few @sshats counted many times.
