No, you'll be on to the next.
OK guys, I'ma teach you how to measure DPS for your static, without using 3rd-party tools. You will need a tank.

Step 1. Make a party with you and a good DPS.
Step 2. Go into the Extreme trial of your choice (preferably lower-level).
Step 3. As tank, hold agro for a few minutes and see how much HP they're able to chip. Do as little damage as possible.
Step 4. Make the same party with your potential new static member.
Step 5. Have them go through the same process. See how much HP they're able to chip, in the same amount of time.
Step 6. Make a decision based on that. If you find that they aren't doing enough damage, you are free to gatekeep them from joining your static to your heart's content. Yay!

What're they gonna do then? Who're they gonna cry to now?
