I don't really care about strict metas, but there is a baseline level of performance that should be adhered to in team play
>Champions Online
>world boss Teleiosaurus is open to all players (rather than being tagged by a guild group) whenever it's up
>has a DPS check that requires 10k damage per person in a 5 second window (not a huge number), so the goal of DPS is to do enough to make up for tanks and healers
>if this DPS check is not met, it recovers a shit ton of HP, forcing a "do over" of the previous phase
>this means that bad DPS can prevent the fight from ever finishing
Thus "Dino" is the only world boss that gets abandoned regularly after like 7 failed checks. There are often too many dead weight DPS that do like 400-800, or stay dead pinging "rez me!" during the check so they still add a full 10k to the check amount. They often suck so bad because their builds are thoughtless, which is exacerbated by the freedom the game gives in building characters. And there are indeed viable DPS builds for every powerset. Even something hyper-focused on healing like celestial can still pass the check with proper play and gearing. The worst part? You explain all this to them and they get super pissy instead of trying to improve.
