DPS checks vs mechanics

I'm on a phone so I can't edit. You probably don't give bots enough credit. If the top 10 guilds on wow uses them for server firsts then it's conceivable it happens on here. Ff 14 more closely resembles wow then any other mmo and all fights are scripted dance routines which is perfect for bots.

What planet is this dude on? That aside, this whole topic is still ridiculous. Every player has to do mechanics, like dodge aoes. The Healers have to meet a check by keeping players alive through damage that can not be mitigated or by removing debuffs. The tank has to deal with a check in the form of managing their cooldowns in order to avoid lethal damage or to keep another party member safe from enemies through enmity management. The DPS role's check is in the form of their damage output while performing mechanics like grabbing the adds in Alexander Fist of the Father, or opening the tube in Fractal Continuum. If you removed the necessity of damage from a fight, you're effectively getting rid of one of the core components of the game, in addition to making the other job's tasks way more difficult. So instead of a wipe it just makes the Healer's job like ten times harder because you're failing something? Here's the deal: In difficult content there are four DPS and two Healers. If the four of you combine to fail something, what realistic chance do you think the two of them have of overcoming it? This whole topic is nonsense at this point. I don't even know what example there is of content other than the poorly tuned Alexander Savage you could give as an example that isn't easy to beat.
