Maybe it was because I was a healer as well, but I rarely had to wait on another healer back in SB. Hell, even when I went in as RDM, most of the time I found myself waiting on tanks rather than another healer.

It's probably that
When im tank all groups full
When im dps no tanks
Like come on
I've learned in SB to never pug savage above the 2nd tier..
I have some friends who don't even get to E4S all week because pugs in 2 and 3 are so bad :p
I’ve been pugging my weekly titans just fine, you just have to have some patience, but I will agree healers are dead lol I’ve cleared Titan 7 times and 5 of them was with the same two healers cause there is already a low healer population and healers who cleared Titan or are on Titan are even smaller
I'm a healer, but the problem is I never got into a static or started Savage fights this push due to stormblood being a dead zone. I didn't even get through all the EX content from Stormblood until this expansion because the combat system was horrible last expansion.
I would rather skip out on savage than pug them. Pugging is the worse because healers get blamed for everything in this game. You're not only expected to keep the black mages that refuse to move out of stuff alive but you're also expected to do big DPS. It's just not fun playing that way. I don't blame healers for not wanting to pug.
As a healer, I refuse to do savage. It’s beyond my skill range. I did up to os2 in Stormblood but that’s it. It was at that point I realized the limit of my skills were at.
Maybe i'm just really fortunate, but i disagree on this statement, i see more people being blamed for screwing up actual mechanics than people getting angered at healers in savage for "everything".
It's quite apparent in this tier where having dead bodies causes problems as the mechanics still have to be resolved and don't just vanish because someone was in the wrong place at the wrong time. (I.e. E3S/E4S)
It doesn't matter if they are a Healer/DPS/Tank, if they are consistently doing (mechanic) blatantly wrong, they will get fingers pointed at them fairly quickly.
Sure there's people that want to greed DPS to the point where they will take additional damage, but not everyone in PF is like that.
This is coming from a PUG healer.
