Post Your Healing Horror Stories.

I guess better I learned at 51 versus at 60.

Hehe, well, I bet anyone that would have liked a spear buff liked arrow just as much if not more. But it's not a bad time to find out... AST buffs come into their own in the later levels, IMO. Early on, you just don't really have the tools to manipulate them as much.

More of a derp on my part, I leave bio on my virus on my DPS hotbar. Because of my muscle memory with always turning off CS before switching back to my one of my healing hotbars, I would activate CS unknowingly go healing until either I notice much later on that I am healing with physicks of 500 HP or some one points it out. Thankfully no deaths have actually happened when this happens but man is it embarrassing.

Had a pretty bad time in A4 yesterday. Got in a DF group and many people had the first kill title so I figure that they have done a couple of runs already and it will be an easy 10 minutes work. How wrong I was. The problem started on the first phase with the orbs. They would spawn and.....Nobody moves. Nobody even seems to see them until they all crash into everyone all clumped together and they wipe. Next run. Same thing but manage to power through with heals. Despite telling them about the obvious tell when the Orbs spawn steam comes from the bosses leg. They still don't even notice until it's too late.

Got to phase two somehow. Anarchy with adds none of the DPS are on top of the spawns the only one that is the Tank has hold of. first wave somehow goes down. Beams on me....Nobody notices and I die. Get a raise. Next add phases beams on me again. Do they notice? Of course not. Then one DPS gets 4 stacks from the add and doesn't think to run before he becomes a suicide bomber and kills everyone.

Next run wiped on orbs again because they do the same thing. I'm still pretty mad that they just screwed me over on beams and complain about it. They kick me. The funniest thing the only other guy complaining was one of the Tanks and right after got in another A4 with that same Tank and a fresh group and downed it in 7-8 mins.

Actually, if tanks stay purely defensive, this allows the healers to do some dps, and 3-4 well timed holys each mob pack will do more dps, then the small dps gain using STR accesoirs and/ or going offensive stance

My horror story was in high level roulette, 2 blackmages synced down to lvl 50 (so with max itemlevel allowed in the dungeon) doing multiple flares on mob pulls and a freshly lvl 50 darkknight with a lvl 34 two hand sword.

Yesterday I ran the lost city of amdapor and my tank was pulling roughly 6-7 mobs at a time. BARELY living. Not sure if this what healing is suppose to be like or if he just really sucks at usng cooldowns. He was wearing full ironworks and had some version of relic.

Anyway at the end he told the dps that they suck and left. It's stuff like this that makes me not want to heal. I miss assize and asylum :/

So there was a question in the Tank's forum about When to Deliverance and this seems to be a good answer!
(of course it was a joke answer, and you might know just how much horror that would bring about were it to happen for real)

that actually happened to me before in vault ... i wanted to cry tears of blood during the last boss fight... so apparently someone took that very seriously... T.T

"Q: Why doesn't Deliverance solve all my problems immediately?

A: Because man is born alone in this cold universe."

xD

That is a hilarious post....

So the DPS in me has to comment on this.

If the DPS is too slow, you will have to heal more, and the tank will run the risk of staying in the middle of 6-7 mobs WHILE his CDs are down. Death is usually imminent. It's his fault for gauging the DPS's damage higher than what it really was.
