The goals are different, but you know, "they" are minmaxing for books, you're minmaxing for damage.. I go for damage too as prio, so nothing wrong with that. Also nothing wrong with swapping people and specs etc during and within a wow raid; as long as everyone wants to do it, go for it. I used to be a casual way back when, and would seriously doubt the sanity of such raids. Nowadays, I could see myself willingly being a part of one and enjoying sitting out and playing the swap-in specialist or whatnot.
I find min maxing being the default in a way - you can't expect people "not doing their best" .. and if min maxing breaks a game, it's a poorly balanced game - it can still be fun and a great game overall (like 7dtd for the most part), but as a Game it's an indication of a design flaw.
