Post Your Healing Horror Stories.

Yep is has become a common occurence now. Sadly people dont seem to understand that raid level WAR use crafted i110 accessories to get both STR and VIT, not just STR leads to lots of very quishy DF tanks that have STR only accessories, like the PLD i once got in DF with i90 left side and STR accessories right side, their health pool was abysmally low and their defence practically non-existant O.o.

It's stupid tanks taking High-End raid advice into dungeon content without spending a single thought...

5 seconds of nobody doing any DPS. That's a lot of damage that doesn't get thrown out much more than i can pump out on the boss in that amount of time. Doing DPS apart from adds is kind of pointless. Some classes have a skill they can use to avoid the debuff but they are too dumb to throw it out half the time. If the MT needs more healing than some regens thrown on them for that boss they are probably doing it wrong. If you have problems using 2k MP out of 5k or more at that level then you are probably doing it wrong. I'm hardly starving for mana so I'll buy my party more DPS time throw on SoS and gain most of my MP back. Anything else just feels like a lazy heal bot who just wants to afk half the fight because they have nothing to do. This is why i think a lot of Healers in WoD are a joke they just stand around picking their nose until they can spam heals. Lazy.

Please take a look at your post and realize you're arguing over 5 seconds.

"Go do Urth's Fount again," they said.
"It'll be fun," they said.
"You won't have all three gungnirs dropped on top of you while you're busy quick-refreshing the tank's HP for bleed phase," they said.

I DFed Urths for a guildie who needed the clear, tanks had 6-7k hp max, Sangetall laughed at their pitiful excuse for life.

Ran Labyrinth of the Ancients last night for 2 new people in FC. I'm not sure if one of the other groups was trolling or just really bad.... Four skeletons made it to Bone Dragon (they stacked 3 so they all ran together), they didn't bother killing the Allagan Napalm (bomb actually blew up .. never seen that before), didn't deactivate the towers on KB, didn't get to their pad on Phlegethon... We would have wiped on Bone Dragon and KB if the rest of us weren't 110+.
We got to tell our new FC people that they were seeing how to NOT do it.

And of course the obligatory WOD run.. the healers in one of the other parties were dead constantly. They must have missed every mechanic. I was in as summoner and spent my whole time rezzing them while our healers kept everyone else alive.

That's because it's Labyrinth of the Trolls D: LotT xD
I like giving benefits of the doubt to people, but it's gotten to the point where I just assume there are trolls in every raid - until proven innocent. :| My expectations of trolls are doubled for LotA

Well to be fair there are a lot of instant kill mechanics in WoD, and literally noone ever tells anyone about them, or how they work.
I guess everyone with their dozens of runs has forgotten what it was like for them their first few times.

Yes but 2 of the tanks were new so there was alliance-wide discussion of the mechanics for the sake of the tanks at least. I always give an overview of the mechanics if someone asks. One of the healers I had also seen in previous runs.

I am the horror to healers who die in full party content.

HELL NO! Pew pew ...pewpewpew....

Last night Stone Vigil normal. I'm still new to that place. But even so. Level 41 tank. Undergeared. Decides to pull a whole room, runs out of sight all the time. Led to a few wipes because Eos and my own heals didn't land because he went out of sight again *sigh*. Say something about it, and the only answer I got was Protect?

As if Protect, Stoneskin and Adloquium will save you. Which they didn't....

And if he didn't have to run around corners it was an Embrace/Physick spam just trying to keep him up. His health bar went up and down like crazy. Pretty sure it would have left my Whitemage out of mana. My Scholar came close once.

I wasn't healing (thank god) but my FC leader was. We went into WoD, wiped on the first trash pack, almost wiped on the first boss, nearly wiped on the 2nd trash pack, wiped on the 2nd boss, disbanded.

I was however attempting to play with 0.02 MBPS up/down and 900 ping because my ISP decided to kill all their hamsters or something. My game was actually registering events that had happened a whole 5-10 minutes behind everyone else.

I remember her screaming, "Discordance is going to cast! No one is killing the heads! It's nearly dead too!" And I said, "Well, on my screen the boss is still at 98% HP, but I'm gonna throw out some Fire II's and pretend I'm helping."

And naturally the raid blamed the healers, and I know she was working her butt off 'cause our other healer and DRG died a lot.
