Why are some Warlocks so useless during strikes

Now before the hate starts, this is more of a PSA. I have a warlock. I enjoy playing as one. However, when I'm playing with other locks during strikes, they never help out orb wise. I don't get it. Almost all locks run Sunsinger with fire born. Why? This isn't a nightfall or raid. Why do you need self res? Afraid of dying and wiping? You have checkpoints. Sunsingers can make the most orbs out of all the classes and subclasses. You don't even have to kill them with your grenades to make orbs. Help out and actually contribute. If you do strikes will get done much faster. Nobody is doing the strike playlist for fun guys. It's about engram farming and trying your luck at exotics and legendaries. Maybe stop saving your supers for self res? Fire born isn't going to help you or your teammates. Strikes are very easy to accomplish so wiping shouldn't be an issue. Be more tactical and courteous. Edit 1: Once again guys, this isn't a warlock hate post. I don't believe that once race is better than another. It all depends on the user. I love playing as a warlock. It's a lot of fun with my OB+BJJ combo. Currently in leveling my Sunsinger class so I can use my HoPF in the most efficient way. When I made this post I had the undying mind strike in my head. It's much easier to spam supers than it is to spam your weapons and heavies. Working together to generate orbs for each other will clear that strike out really fast. Edit 2: Still missing the point are we? I titled it that way so the post would get traction. It isn't a hate post. Nobody's telling you how to play. Just a question and a suggestion people. The method I stated above is simply the most efficient way of doing things as I see it. That's all. Edit 3: 200+ replies? Nice. Some hate from people who jumped to conclusions and didn't read my post. That's cool. Some really awesome stuff from others. Figured out some good combinations for Sunsinger. Radiant skin + nade city + heavy = orbs. Orbs everywhere. Edit 4: 300+ a lot of people are agreeing with what I'm talking about. Nice to see people agree. For those who've misunderstood my intentions or don't agree, cool. Hope you're enjoying the game how you play it! For those that do. Supers. Supers everywhere. Thanks to those who shared!

Regardless of what class I'm on I and almost everyone else I know play ROC strikes for fun, I'm sorry you are incapable of separating your work mentality and your game mentality and can only see games as chores that must be done....but don't drag me or anyone else into your stupidity. And when I'm playing my warlock, I roll with sunsinger fireborn....why? So I can clear rooms in seconds....and if I die in the process? Get back up and clear the room even faster. And at some point I believe you said something about generating orbs for teammates? Well, 9/10 times my teammates suck. They wouldn't know what to do with the orbs I generate. So until there is an option to turn off match making, I'll be treating ROCs like I'm doing them solo.
