ZOS should be more kind to healers/Tanks

I was helping several random people fight a world boss (It was also part of my dailies) in the deadlands on my tank... I taunted the Wboss and tried to do some dps... after the boss was dead... I wasn't able to loot the boss because I didn't pull a significant amount of dps on the boss to be added to the top 10. I think that's a horrible design by default. It's no wonder why people don't wanna be a tank or a healer these days.. I wouldn't if I'm not being rewarded for my service.

@ZOS_Kevin When is ZOS going to have an appreciation day for tanks and healers? Why do you guys snuff both tanks and healers out of in-game loot when they're doing exactly what they're supposed to do? When healers are healing.. they're supposed to be rewarded... same with tanks and taunting world bosses.. So far I've got nothing out of helping out a bunch of randoms to fight and to kill a world boss. What's the incentive?

    OP, I'd suggest editing the title to say be fair to healers and tanks at WB drops. Agree 100% with this.

    The dungeon queue is filled with healers these days. Throw a rock and hit one. Tank on the other hand, not so much.

    I completely agree. In fact....I'd love to see some points for being a healer in Cyro....I get it's all about killing other players, but man...I healed a lotta folks and walk away with barely any movement in that skill line :(

    OP, you have a good point that unfortunately I think will be ignored. Devs are alway set on making adjustments to try and balance combat, how about starting with roles. No role should be rewarded more that another, if they are you might as well get rid of it he whole "Trinity" route.

    Healers, or DD's with a heal slotted? I see DD's queing as healers AND tanks to get a spot quickly. Does it hinder the group? Most of the time, no, especially on normals. Does it completely disregard the concept of roles? Absolutely.

    They need to do away with the whole "12 random people/highest DPS" mechanic. It punishes people who are legitimately trying just to exclude those who afk or whatever. There's no reason for it either way. Don't cheat your players out of engaging in the game. Everyone who does at least a few points of damage should get loot, even if they're just light attacking their way to victory.
    Character List [RP and PvE]:
    Stands-Against-Death: Argonian Magplar Healer - Crafter
    Krisiel: Redguard Stamsorc DPS - Literally crazy Werewolf, no like legit insane. She nuts
