Yoshi P to Mr.Happy "Heal DPS is not mandatory and no expectation for Healer to DPS!"

Makes me wonder if those "I play healer to heal, not to DPS" -people would say anything if tanks and damage dealers would join with them and only go with minimal effort.

Dungeons got nice 90 minutes time limit, so might as well stay in there for whole duration instead of going through it in 15 mins.

Fair enough I suppose, especially when it's basically bannable to criticize and help df dps improve to the point healer dps isn't needed.

Because I *am* a healer and the only thing I find disgusting is people thinking it is ok for ANY role to sit there and look cute for over half of a dungeon.

Quite frankly your opinion on what is disgusting is just that your opinion. My opinion is that healers should throw dps when able, but that is my opinion. The difference is I can accept what Yoshi said about the healer's role in a dungeon and what others might do because of said statement.

Food for thought, maybe if we, as a collective, raised our standards just a *tiny* bit then we wouldn't need threads like this.

Once again, I never debated his comments, I said that his comments don't matter if your group decides to kick you for not being a fully contributing member.

And force WHM in more healing at the same time

Except that Healers do not have more to heal, but DPS have more Damage to do.

There is a difference.

Can't spell "standards" without "elitist scum"

Oh wait...

There is plenty of game for them to play that doesn't force their inability to be a team player on others.

As long as I do enough damage to complete dungeon within time limit, I have done my job.

"Speedrunning" is optional.
