Yes, you can absolutely have a random DF experience where everyone is minimal efforting- the tank isn't using defensive cooldowns, the DPS are doing something resembling a rotation and not using damage buffs, and the healer is just sitting around waiting for their tank to dip to 90% before queuing up another Cure.
But it honestly doesn't have to be that way. The "It's just roulette, not endgame" excuse to be low effort really grates at me. Just because everyone else in the party might be bad or lazy, doesn't mean that you have to be also. Does that mean go off on everyone else verbally? NO. Does that mean treat the other people disrespectfully? NO. But if you know how to do something properly, it should be done in all public content, no matter how easy.
If I expected everyone to play at Endgame level in dungeons - Experts or no - I would lose my mind and be so frustrated all the time. It's not going to happen, and I'm not going to stress myself out by expecting it.
Why stress yourself out expecting everyone to play up to your standards when you're pugging?
Quite literally said nothing about expecting others to play up to your standards. I only said that if you have the know-how, don't be part of the problem by also playing low-effort, even if everyone else in your PUG is.
But now that you mention it, I find it hilarious that the FFXIV community at large considers using 1/3 of your skillset as "Endgame-level" exclusive LOL. Like, WHMs or SCHs haven't had almost all of their DPS abilities by the early lv30s or 40s. Like only endgame level Tanks need to use cooldowns because there are no tank busters in Roulette dungeons?
