Problem with Cleric Stance?

[chumsy]

Not with this BS again. Listen you may not like stance dancing but note that some people do. Just know that a healer that knows when it's safe to do and does dps instead of standing there like I assume you do. Just cause you don't like to do something doesn't mean people should listen to you. Get out if you have nothing good to say.

Cleric stance was created for the sole purpose of soloing. Stop trying with the excuse that a non dps healer isnt a good healer. Is that to say a non healing tank isnt good? why dont a PLD throw out some Cures then? ridiculous, this isnt GW2 lol. I bet you were the ones that wiped the raid when you tried to throw out a Holy, which caused the tank to die and wiped the raid. DPSing as a healer is a luxury not a necessity get that fact imbedded into your MMO brains.

lets just make every job capable of doing everything problem solved? wait i think i know that game, its called GW2 lol

or better yet just give all healers the cleric stance benefit without the penalty? but in all honesty, if SE really intended healers to dps, they would have already done that; stance switching is the dumbest game mechanic ive ever heard of, but i suppose to some its fun to click a million buttons.

Gotta love how someone tries to reignite this flamefest every other week.

By this point all we have to do is link the Search feature and walk away.

its a flamefest because ppl realize its bad game mechanics

This isn't the thread to debate the use of Cleric Stance. Please don't try making it as such. There are plenty of (buried) threads about this "issue"; make one of your own flame fest filled threads if you want, but stop trying to carry this debate to unrelated threads.

If you had the the tiniest brain in history you still wouldn't comprehend what I said. I SAID that a GOOD healer knows when ITS SAFE to DPS. Like I said just cause YOU don't like something doesn't mean OTHERS CANT. they gave use cleric stance because it would help with DPS checks and other BS that requires high DPS other wise it wouldn't turn out mind stat into a intelligence stat that RIVALS BLACK MAGE aka A HIGH DPS CLASS. They gives us tools to use and if you don't like to use your entire toolkit then enjoy being the person who likes to not help out a group to the BEST of THEIR ability. I know that you can accomplish more but your either afraid, don't like to take risk, or are just plain LAZY.

Edit: This is the last post I will say anything about a DPSing healer cause I'm gonna respect the posters that want this to stay on topic.

I do understand what you said. Ill stick to the topic for the OP, and say this wouldn't be an issue if they didn't implement this horrible cleric stance mechanic.
