<GM Imaginary> Hello, this is GM Imaginary. You have been reported for harassment due to keeping your party alive during a dungeon while being a healer. Please leave game forever. :cool:

I would love to see how fast someone reports a player for this to a GM and they themselves get In Trouble when they pull said persons activity logs to see they had some form of input either typing to an FC or LS or anything really. On top of that when the GM contacts me I will simply file a report of harassment for false accusation and whatever verbal abuse you decided to give me in the dungeon. ^.~

Yes, I agree, it really is too bad, but I just kind of avoid doing them for the reasons I listed for the most part. Sometimes I will join in and it'll be good... but when you do Garuda on trials and you wipe because 4DPS and a healer couldn't be bothered to move out of the big vortex-dealies... it's quite sad, and makes you not want to bother.

Also, I would have to disagree with a healer just healing being a healer pulling their weight, again that's the bare minimum. You might as well say DPS are pulling their weight by just doing a 1-2-3 rotation and not popping any cooldowns (or, like in the case of Tam-Tara where we don't have many cooldowns, auto-attacking is just fine - it's really not).

This does assume your tank and DPS are at least competent and don't dive into AoEs.

I normally DPS instead of heal when I run Low-DR as a SCH.

---

This. OP play the job and you would realize it.

I DPS on SCH (its currently 42) more than heal.

As a bard, they usually set the follow to me because they assume I will stay far from anywhere they will get hit. I lead them to the AoE over and over until they die. I'm not going to carry someone else through their roulette.

I don't cast a healing spell even once as a Scholar either when I'm in a low level dungeon. Here's my rotation:

Step 1: Cast Ruin.
Step 2: Repeat.

so you don't cast dots to speed the process?

I forgot. ^.^
Seems like I can access Bio and Miasma at that level.

That's the worst excuse I've ever heard. Because you don't have four hands? Seriously? NO ONE has four hands yet many people seem to do it just fine.

Also, if you don't practice you'll never ever get better at it.

Well then I hope some nice Scholar dismisses their pet and refuse to heal you. I mean, why should they carry you through your roulette?
You could ask the Paladin to heal anyway, I mean they can cross class skill Cure, and ya'll know what a travesty it is to not use all of your available abilities. ^.-

overpower builds enmity quickly and its good if you lose mobs, I know there's some dumbasses that only spam overpower and don't do their rotations but that's not the majority. If enemies aren't running around doing the monster mash then tank isn't slacking. Get some experience before you critize.
