Cross-Class Equality...Devil's advocate

[Clarith]

As I have stated in a recent rogue topic, I believe many people are overly concerned about cross-class equality.

The first priority of a raiding guild should be taking competent players that are able to perform their role in an encounter in order to defeat the boss.

Instead, I keep seeing massive QQ about how warriors scale better with AP than rogues, or rogues are the only people that have to manage their resources. Blah blah blah.

Everyone go watch videos of arcane mages in LK spam arcane blast and watch them oom in 8 casts. But they have outside resources that they have to manage in order for them to regain their mana (they also have to use a non-top dps rotation to keep from ooming).

Make everyone afraid that they will go oom quickly and it will all be more fair, and make the game more challenging.

On one hand we have:
People who think this game is not this game but is instead another game. These people are asking that warriors, mages, and clerics have their regeneration nerfed.
On the other hand we have:
Rogues asking that they also be exempt from worrying about resource consumption in a raid, without an additional consumable, like every other dps class.

You are asking for the entire game to change, how likely do you think that is?

I think it is about as likely as Sab ever being viable again without DD.

Seriously though, I know it won't happen.

When you outlast your evocate cd spamming ab and do better dps than the 85s, at level 80

Don't forget the players of melee clerics asking for the same avoidance free from tanking trees that rogues and warriors get purely because of strength/dexterity converting directly to avoidance/mitigation without having to spec. into it.
