For the sake of discussion, I just have to poke this critter with a stick. I am ready to run if necessary, and as long as I don't trip I should be OK.... What if you AREN'T competent as either a Tank or Healer (or don't believe you can be due to experiences in other MMOs)... what then? What advice do you give then please? (question addressed to anyone, not just Wildstarnewbie....)

Honestly, still give it a shot. I had a warrior main in WoW and had consistently terrible tanking experiences. All the way from starting tanking and not knowing how to do it and getting chewed out to knowing how to do it, having other people pull aggro or do other stupid stuff and get chewed out again. I've been tanking on my engineer some and it's far and away more fun in WS. I haven't tanked much, but the skills are pretty clear on how you use them and you've generally got enough of them to do your job. At that point, the trick is just to learn individual fights. Same with healer, although healer can feel much more hectic in boss fights, but still fun, imo. It's really just about finding the class that best fits you, then training yourself to fit the role with it. If you STILL can't manage to tank or heal, then looks like you're going to be in Queuesville with all the other DPSes.

most ppl who cant wrap their heads around tanking or healing tend to gravitate to dps which is fine, i will say practice makes perfect tho, find yurself a guild that doesnt mind you learning the curve or a really good healer ;).. i myself can not stand to play dps its boring to me, i have to be either the tank or healer most times healer cuz im a glory hog.. getting off that clutch heal that keeps the raid/group alive leaves a good feeling in the pit of yur stomach.
