What is it about WoD that brings out all the baddies? That may sound pretentious but seriously, what is the deal?

I'm already capped on my Poetics for the week so I decide that the only thing I can really do, besides level other jobs, is do WoD for the items there for glamour and w/e (I already have i120 for all my left side).

I think I might just avoid WoD from now on. It's generally always a bad experience when I go there but when I see my PLD with 6.7K HP who wants to MT (ilvl 55 boots)? I mean.. Come on. He literally almost got 2 shot on the very first mob group. On Cerberus he lost aggro from 1 combo from a WAR, and he was constantly fighting for enmity in every fight even though he could barely take a hit. But.. that wasn't even the worst part of it...

Where are all these bad healers coming from? Why are there WHMs who just stand around at full MP, don't bother DPSing, and cast Cure II on people when they've only lost like 300 HP?

This is what the other WHM was like. She only used Cure II, Cure III, Regen ,and Medica II. And she used Divine Seal and SoS at weird times (SoS was absolutely useless on her since she had no enmity and was always at full MP). I had to literally tell my her to use Raise at one point too. My team got cleaves during an aggro war at one point and there were about 5 of us down. By this point I was so frustrated that she was doing literally nothing of use (I mean... Cure III on me when I'm down to 60%? Seriously?) that I spoke up and said "Can you use raise instead of doing nothing?". She was a constant nuisance because she was constantly getting killed and I dislike not being allowed to DPS because my other healer is being bad.

I also noticed that team C's WHM was casting Holy during the cage phase of CoD. Why would you cast Holy on a single enemy? That doesn't...
