Now imagine you had those 3 dps on pair with that 2k lower dps person, would you clear it? No. If everyone had the mentality of yours, none of the badies would even get a clear. Let's get real.

    Let me ask you this, 3 dps is as low as that person whos doing 2k less than everyone else, would you clear it? Yes or no. Then you explain to me why.
    Yes, they would. If all 4 DPS had the same DPS as the person in question they would clear. That is the entire basis of my comment. If all 4 players had the same DPS they would make the DPS checks. It just so happens that 3 of them are performing better DPS wise. If you need (using low numbers) 1000 from A, 1000 from B, 1000 from C and 1000 from D to clear and you have 2100 from A, 2050 from B, 1900 from C and 1100 from D you should clear it. Is D underperforming DPS wise compared to the rest of the group? Absolutely. Are they doing more than the required DPS? Yes. Should they improve? Certainly. However, if they hit enrage clearly it isn't because of the DPS. Maybe people are dying? Maybe someone is messing up a mechanic too many times? Not the point. Now in a static yes you would ask that 1100 to improve, of course, but you would see what is causing the enrage because everyone is decent if not well above the DPS requirements. I don't see a PF group doing that. They'd simply kick the low DPS and replace them.

    And I'm being told people in here would too, simply because they feel that 1100 isn't doing their fair share, which I don't agree with at all. If all DPS needed to be 3000 and he was only doing 1100 so the rest had to do exponentially more, then yes I would absolutely consider that 1100 being carried and should leave that group without delay.
