[DEV Question] Why is this allowed?

[Canadane]

Has happened to me, as I've mentioned before I had a WHM using a 145 weapon in Gubal Hard. Was impossible to keep the tank alive even though he was doing normal pulls (one pack at a time). Had to boot the healer.

So people who say it's a non-issue clearly have never encountered this situation, or they have but it was dps and therefore acceptable.

Honestly I could probably reliably keep a tank doing small pulls alive with an even weaker weapon. Surprisingly gear may affect raw numbers but player skill it does not. I mean yeah it probably easy to say "oh his gear was low" but chances are so was his skill level.

Mhmm true am not gonna deny that, still even with a low skill level it wouldn't have been an issue using appropriate gear. Anyone can heal 1 trash pack at a time.

Not much can be done about people individual skill levels as that is something they have to learn themselves. Can do something about inappropriate gear coupled with this compunding the issue for anyone unfortunate enough to come into contact with these people.
