Some people like a spec that’s more than 1 button that says “do 1m dps” so no I don’t think it’s bad to have cooldowns, and buffs, random procs I’m not so sure on though.
You obviously misunderstood my request.
I’m not asking for fewer buttons, I like buttons.
It’s modifier stacking that I dislike: one class having several mechanics that increase damage by x% and the ability to stack them all.
Most of these are passive so the number of buttons you press wouldn’t change much.
