    Show me where on the ToS is it called a norm. Show me where on the game it says explicitly that "healers DPSing are a norm". It's a fine mentality, but this one line of your post irks me.

    So it IS NOT a norm, just a common agreement between a large part of the playerbase. As a healer who DPS every time I can, it REALLY bothers me when people try to force healer DPS to people who don't want to do it.

    Healers have DPS abilities
    Using all your abilities is considered "the norm" when playing a videogame
    Therefore, Healers DPS is the norm

    Say that to the Summoners who never summon their Titan-Egi, so the tank can use his damage skills and don't have to build up enmity.

    Okay, if you wanna split hairs, how's this

    "Using all your abilities appropriately is the norm for a video game"

    I would have thought that obvious, but I guess I was wrong.

    If a summoner never used Titan Egi when a tank was needed, then, yeah, that's not the norm and it shouldn't be considered the norm. That would be an accurate application of the concept.
