I was obviously upset so i asked them what the reasoning was and the tank says "your accessories are under leveled." The two dps told him how stupid that was so he left and we cleared it first try with the new tank.

I hope this isn't what healing is like, because that's the whole reason i stopped maining my tank. I hate how much blame people throw around in this game. Its very discouraging some times.
From experience...

Tank dies, healer's fault. Healer dies, tank's fault. End point. Party wipes, everyone at fault.

If you are playing a Healer, you priority is not letting people die, it is not your fault if the party is actively making it hard. Healer gear isn't quite as relevant as Tank gear is, since Healers are about timing. If you're really undergeared, you'd run out of MP super-fast. DPS aren't usually to blame for a wipe, but if they are not trying to avoid taking damage (particularly SMN, BLM and BRD) then then stop healing them and keep focus on the Tank. If DPS dies, then that is their fault.

Most of the time DPS die due to monster mechanics. Tanks die from overestimating their abilities, or doing stupid things.
