But thats just frankly not always true. Ive seen runs of e3 this round with me playing as a NIN in a party with SMN DNC SAM where there wasnt a single death or vulnerability that still hit enrage. Why? Cause mechanics were done perfectly but we had 1 player you literally was performing at 5th percentile and that was dropping us about 1.5k dps.

This was pre sam and nin buff. Point being tho that saying just doing mechanics perfectly is enough to clear a fight is just false. One bad apple that doesnt know their class well enough. Or one healer that refuses to dps much can very much result in a near impossible clear for the other party members if they are playing weaker classes.
