Probably a dumb idea on class balance.

Let's look at ranged for example. Let's eliminate all utilities from them. Then give them 3 role skills they can only choose 1 of. 1 would be a group def buff, 1 would be a group attack buff 1 would be emergency heal , regen type.

There is only one right choice here.

You would prog with def and heal buffs and since all the range can us it ,no one is preferred over the other.

And its neither of these two.

Just figure out how to apply this mentality to casters , tanks and healers.

Rip Melee I guess. lmao

Damage is not the end all be all of progression or anything to be honest. Unless you have insecurities I can count countless times a extra sheild or or extra health could get us to enrage to learn the whole fight, learning the entire fight front to back is better than 1 peace at time due to wipes. Not to mention you can then make more content more dependent on certain buffs, like alliance raids, heals would be like straight up better than DPS. Also I love straw man counter points, probably the best society has to offer.

No everyone needs a OP job with bigly huge numbers, its screams insecurity and a measuring stick with no real depth.

Real recognizes real.

… I can count countless times...

o.O

No, really, though. I think I understand you wanting to add utility to classes. But it seems this particular way of doing it just waters down the jobs.

You might think that, but the people who are interested in savage content will take a 1% DPS buff over 10% mitigation, or a 100 potency regen for DPS. I know I would.

The only way to make mitigation, or regen, favorable over DPS is to make the DPS buff crap, and make the regen/mitigation buff OP.

Quicker kills = less healing = less damage taken

Yeah, when you're in an Ex training party that's still wiping to mechanics in phase 1 and some genius goes "dps is low". Dude, no one cares about DPS, we didn't even see 2/3 of the fight yet xD Don't be that guy ^^
