No, he's saying that we shouldn't be expecting anyone to do anything outside of the base function of their job. This is all well and good, but definitely not the ideal way to play and not what the Devs had in mind when they designed all of the jobs.Quote:

Is dpsing and a healer becoming the standard norm!

I don't know about you guys, but the norm for me has always been to stick my hands in my pockets and watch three other people play the game without my input. I mean, if you don't need the heals, I'm fine just watching. If you really need healing though, please say something with raid warning noises, or I might not pull my head out of my phone in time to cast a regen or whatever.

03-13-2016, 05:53 AMTheUltimateSephI've actually been asked this very question before and I'll say now what I said then. As long as your fairy doesn't let us die I really don't care. I would t care if your fairy let us die either as long as they could raise us but of course they can't do that.Quote:

03-13-2016, 05:59 AMVelthiceWe get it. You're a bad healer, and you condone others being bad healers. Thanks for your contribution to the topic.Quote:

IMO, Heal when you should. Dps when/if you can.

03-13-2016, 06:07 AMTheUltimateSephYeah cause healers not dpsing makes them bad. I dps in all casual content out of boredom not needing to heal all the time so don't think I'm bad just because I think a certain way is acceptable. I'm also pretty sure if I was that bad I wouldn't have been able to clear Seph EX as a WHM. Oh you know what? I didn't dps in the run I cleared in because I wasn't comfortable with the fight and when to time heals. If I had chosen to dps instead of focusing on keeping people alive we would have wiped even more. Please do go on, this is vastly entertaining.Quote:

You can figure this out the first time you're in there, if, in future runs you're choosing to not dps in that phase I would personally call you out on it. You're actually more likely to cause a wipe in that instance since that phase is a huge dps check.Quote:
