If we're running single-DPS classes like MNKs and DRGs, I'll usually do smaller pulls. I definitely give a closer look if something seems off, though - that "why do I nearly have as much health as the tank" situation included. Though, I don't think I've run into anyone wearing crafting gear to fill slots.Everyone tells me that I have the worst DF pug luck they know. From tanks in not even DoW gear to ice mages with gathering gear...
Playing with all jobs and in my experience, MNK and DRGs actually have pretty good AOE it's just letting them know and having the DPS to support it. AKA MNKs and DRGs can do short big pulls that aren't too long. Like I actually don't like the Anti-tower last trash pull that some people do. The room has waves so if you pull the hallway corridor into it, Invigorate and the other TP from Chakra thing won't keep me up long enough and I'll end up only doing Rockbuster more. Then again, there's a lot of melee who don't know how to AOE.
It's just, in the end I want people to put their best foot forward and run at their potential and efficiency. Even while lazy DPSing, I'm still watching how fast I kill things (or not) and do my best. Drives me insane when people talk about netflix and chilling wile they just see about "but did you wipe?"
