Protect? Really important? Low level content

And this is literally only a problem in the first two dungeons when you have just one cross class slot (if you're leveled down in DF). By the time you hit Copperbell it's a non issue since you can equip both.

Not for me, because my 2nd slot goes to Aero.

Why do you feel so strongly about not doing the most you can as a healer? Why is dps so important but preventing damage via buffs is not? It's honestly rather strange.

Because better DPS both prevents damage AND quickens the dungeon.

Protect = 1 cast, 30 min, lessens damage from all hits you have to cast it once every 30 minutes unless someone dies or the party wipes for whatever reason, preventing damage via buffs is JUST as important as dpsing, if you don't use protect in later content, nobody willwant to raid or dungeon with you, i can guarantee that, its just plain stupid not to have protect up if you're a healer mid-end game, if you don't have protect up, people will ask for it just do both, use protect and dps.

Everyone is discussing Protect in the context of the lowest level dungeons. I don't think anyone advocates running around without Protect in higher level duties.
