Why?

When I mess up as a healer and people don't get topped in-time or such, it's generally fairly obvious what happened even with chat logs alone, more so with a video recording. As such, I'll need to up my game, adjust and sort it out or get replaced for someone who can do it.

When a tank messes up and gets themselves one shot by a mechanic, fails their positioning and get's the raid cleaved, doesn't pick up an add in time or such, it's generally fairly obvious what happened even with chat logs alone, more so with a video recording. As such, they need to up their game, adjust and sort it out or get replaced for someone who can do it.

When a DPS messes up and fails a mechanic, it's typically fairly obvious what happened, however, when they fail the DPS check as a collective whole it's very difficult to tell what went wrong with chat logs alone and only marginally easier with a video replay (Unless you've got PoVs for each DPS in fairness).

What makes DPS such special snowflakes that they are above criticism and unaccountable to their standard of play in Savage content when neither Tanks nor Healers have anything like that luxury in their core role? Should I and 3 other 'support' players be obligated to endure banging our heads against a brick wall purely because we got unlucky enough to land too DPS that either couldn't be bothered or simply don't understand how to play their role to at least an average standard?

Like or not, the sad reality is that the current endgame is still very DPS centric, until SE step in and provide the tools end game orientated players need to gauge their own performance accurately and relevantly, other people will step in with tools of their own.
