    Did i get this right?
    Taking the obvious bait, but tanks actively lose DPS by swapping back into tank stance and aggro comboing, while using Diversion or Lucid as a DPS or healer costs nothing. It's not that hard to understand.

    So, basically you're agreeing with dundhey's statement? Thing is, there can't really be a single answer, because different types of content requires different play style. And while I understand and accept that savage and ex-trials are where everyone should push their dps, I'll never accept same expectations for regular dungeons.

Keeping the team alive is the healers job, they can just do their job properly instead of relying on me to press one button to help them with that.

    Next time the healer asks for a cover or blackest night on the prey target in o7s I'll tell them that's not my job and that they're bad.
    You guys seriously have trouble understanding that there's different play standards in savage and regular content, don't you?

    It's not like we're saying DPS players should go do hours of rotation practice and dummy parses to climb up to 7k DPS and play perfectly. We're saying "press Diversion when you're going to burst" or "press Lucid when you're climbing the list." It's literally that easy -- press a single button that costs you nothing so that your tank doesn't have to pay the price and cover up for your laziness.
