    DPS is flat out the easiest roles, you don't need any additional bonuses for what you do.

    For 95% of content, DPS just have to optimize their damage, and not stand in stuff. Tanks and healers need to do twice the work as any of you. Any proper tank should be positioning intelligently, using proper cooldowns to create less stress on the healer, and maximizing his DPS while doing mechanics. Healers have to keep everyone alive or fix people's mistakes ( IE ressing their butts ), do their best on dps, and do mechanics.

    Sure, tank and healer can be lazy and not use cooldowns, or not try to actually dps, but if I'm tanking or healing, which most the time I am, I won't accept that and boot you in a heartbeat. No tank should ever think just holding aggro is their job, and no healer should ever think they can stand there 3-5 seconds at a time doing nothing except keeping the tank topped off. It's one thing if you're learning, but thats rarely the case to be so passive. I play DPS some myself, and do high numbers while also doing mechanics, it's honestly not that hard, and thats me playing monk which can be a pain to do optimal on when things are moving.

    DPS is the easiest, your mistakes aren't as noticeable unless you're dying due to your own faults. You have the largest portion of the population by a huge margin due to it, and the tank/healer/dps combination is what most traditional MMORPGs follow. If you don't like that there's always action MMOs like vindictus or even guild wars.

    So either keep yourself busy while que'ed, try tank/healing yourself ( And don't be lazy about it ), or find some friends, as I always take my girlfriend who dps's with me, and any friends who want to join for quick ques
