Post Your Healing Horror Stories.

My healing horror is having met a tank who refuse to use shield oath and flash in WP (and he admitted to have bought the account the day before) + a blm with relic weapon dressed up with spirit bonding items...

Result = wiped 5 times.

I play both healer and tank. I don't really have a worst experience. I do get a lot of tanks in wp runs that try to do a speed run, pull a bunch of mobs, use flash only once, and then by the time I heal a couple teams they all try to eat me. It really drives me nutz. Whatever happened to players learning their job and taking pride in being good at it lol

I did WP in a DF Pug tonight as a SCH and it was a night mare. we queue into the dungeon and I see a geared bard, a fresh 50 MNk and the warrior (NQ Relic, with mix of ilvl 70/90 gear and Regular AF helmet.

This guy proceeds to mark and pull each group in WP one by one marking them and single targeting threat only on his current target using IB at 5 stacks everytime, no flash, no overpower, no steel cyclone, not even bothering to touch the other enemies. Needless to say I would get healing aggro and the Bard would get AoE aggro and we would end up kiting the mobs around the room, the slashers would catch up to us and would wipe us.

After the first wipe, I ask him to please use flash and overpower so get aggro (I'm a warrior main, but even so this is common sense), he proceeds to tell me that if I THE HEALER only attacked the targets he marked I wouldn't get attacked by anything and he didn't need to use those abilities and waste his MP and TP.

This...is truly a nightmare *_*Did he just win the game yesterday in the cereals?

I came here to read what annoys healers so I can be a better tank...i'm honestly shocked at some of this stuff. That last story is just...how do you get to level 50 and a relic without knowing that healing pulls everything that's been activated? How people can be this stupid with only one head I have no idea.

Dumb DPS's in Titan who blame healers for not healing them when they stand in a double or triple Weight of the Land (4-6k DMG, more then they have HP), or Tanks the unnecessarily stand in AoE's. Most of the worst is a DPS who cannot avoid AoE's over and over and then lashes out because they died. Sorry buddy eventually my MP needs to go to the tank not you.

Not so much a healing horror story, but the premise is the same. People bitching that I wasn't raising them mid HM titan fight (Disclaimer: They were landslide'd out of the arena)

last night in Haukke HM. The tank was actually pretty good and the DPS were pretty good too even if a little low on gear. However, the tank insisted on telling me what to do constantly. Use holy it will go faster, aren't you going to do regen (I don't normally regen when we are fast pulling trash mobs). Then he tells me to use regen on bosses then, then this and that... we got to the second boss and i finally just left. We were doing fine, but I was getting annoyed by being told what to do and I had a headache anyway. I don't understand people that feel the need to tell everyone what to do - especially when it was going ok.

Q'd for high level roulette, and get an in progress run at 3/4. Turns out to be Pharos Siruis. I hadn't attempted it yet, and they were on Siren. I told them right away that I was new, but I had watched a video so I have a rough idea what to do. There was 18 minutes left when I arrived. The conversation went like this:

Player A: Hi! I hope you're crazy enough to heal through Siren.
Me: Haha I'm pretty crazy but I don't know, this is my first time here.
Player B: *flips table*
Player C: OMFG just kill me now
Player A: So sick of noobs learn the dungeon before q'ing in the DF.
Me: Uh I queued for roulette, and guess what? I use the DF to learn dungeons so I don't embarrass myself in front of players I have to see everyday. Just give me a chance.
Player A: Right, brb.
Player B: AFK

With five minutes left, neither had returned, so I left.

This is my first healing horror story where I didn't even cast cure. I was really frustrated that they wouldn't even give me a chance!

I guess he thinks Titan HM DF is the only way to go, and PUGing it is the worst thing possible...
