Why you are forced to play this class one way

[Wishblade]

Hello Seweryn. I wanna play a game.

1. You play the optimal way and can do all the "advanced" endgame.
2. You play however you want but you're not gonna do all the endgame.

Will you be what they want you to be, or will you do whatever you want? Make your choice.

I agree with most here, this really only applies to raiding - anything else it really doesn't matter how you play - whether it is a 1k dps boost or not matters little in a dungeon or while questing. But, raids have raid leaders, other players are all depending on you to do your best - and research where research is needed.
But otherwise, play how you like - you are right it's just a game...

but raiding is srs biznes.
