your healer may hate you.

My healer hates me, but that's purely because I'm his best friend and I like to "help" him by playing hide and seek around corners and out of his line of sight just so I can hear him cuss me out over skype and laugh, but that's just me

people need/use paeon in expert? why are the pulls taking so long?

As a healer i hate everyone.

They do things
that require healing
what do they think I am there for.

As a babynewb healer, with no healing jobs above level thirty: I mostly hate it when the tank doesn't hold down aggro. Nothing hinders a me as a healer as much as being dead. I don't mind so much when the tank over-pulls; it just means I can spend a bit of time actually healing instead of being a dps that occasionally slaps a band-aid on the tank.

I feel like you all are dealing with a lot of new tanks who are both completely new to the game and chose tank not knowing and completely new to tanking period

A lot of times you can move just as quickly through the dungeons without massive pulls. The DPS is more focused because you can 1-2-3 mobs with single target skills as opposed to slowly creeping away life bars using nothing but aoe skills. And healers can help with offensive spells and debuffs as opposed to spamming tank heals for dear life.

But no one ever wants to believe that... it's not the "cool" way to do it.

The time it takes to do that makes it pretty clear which way is better.

Haters gonna hate.

My armor must be cursed or there is a bug in the game. I do the same pulls, the same way. But occasionally I'll have the healer tell me I'm wearing paper. I thought at first the healer may have had the wrong idea just spamming physick constantly or using a cannon in main scenario while I slowly died.

However! These healer assured me that my paper armor was to blame! They were name-calling too, so you know they were serious business! There must be a curse!

I use benediction on trash pull. In all honesty who saves them for even boss fights in dungeons?! If you have 10% mp and then use bene at the end of the pull you clearly didn't dps enough. After all the best tank mitigation are dead mobs. Doing nothing to help will only make it worse. Then again I don't expect any healer to do dps in dungeons, that's their own choice. But I love to dps than rather say; omg nothing happens and I'm at full mp. Instead of going off with that attitude, go and help.

I've rarely ever had to use Benediction in a dungeon. I feel that if I had to use benediction then someone (maybe myself) messed up something big time.

I have, however, used Benediction often in PvP when someone's HP is just dropping super fast or I manage to get within spell range right before they are about to die and Swiftcast isn't up yet.
