Negative stereotypes about your main!

[CherryCola]

Ones I've heard off the top of my head (not necessarily related to mains):

• A Dragoon's specialty is tanking the floor.
• Female Au'Ra Astrologians are more likely to be less skilled.
• WHMs are more likely to idle (not dps and/or needlessly top off tank).

All but the last I'm skeptical about. Sure Dragoons hit the floor, but so do all other DPS (especially melee). I don't see Dragoons hitting the floor anymore often than any other DPS, atleast not now. Same with Au'Ra Astrologian. I've run into many instances where the opposite was true, and another different race could be better with the class in question. We also have to remember there was a time where Astrologian really was an undertunned healer, at the same time Au'Ra were introduced (and players wanted to try out the new race). Could be related to where this idea came from.

The last, as much as I like WHM as a class, usually when I'm in a party with an idling or jumping healer, it's a WHM. Not that I'm a healer DPS extremist ( I prefer and recommend it), just something I notice. So I do have a little belief in that one.

I see this all the time. It's so annoying that they don't realize they can easily outdamage people with Holy spam, lmao. Scholars and Astrologians in general are much better at their jobs than White Mages in my experience.
