Post Your Healing Horror Stories.

[Cherub]

Not much of horror stories but more annoying things.
Burden of the father, normal. I'm a SCH. It was a PF group. Everything looks fine and good but boy. So the first set of balls spawn, the OT or anyone else for that matter doesn't pick em up. Well I'll just hero it, make sure tanks lives while taking all balls myself to prevent deaths as no one else, literally no one gave a shit. So I do the balls.
Advancing to the add phase. DPS doesn't pick up adds. So I grab one, make sure to support the WHM on healing, kill my add off, kill the add off of the WHM and repeat. While doing all of this I also naturally run to the guy who is being targeted by lazers(not literally run into him but u get what I mean).I get targeted myself however, I stand still.... Now I know I ought better than to trust this party but I didn't....and then I didn't again. So I die to lazers. Leg dies shortly after. Get a raise, aetherflow, I'm good.
So now the damage can become a bit overwhelming. I have weakness, I have the debuff, I'm still the one majorly dealing with the mechanics. (Balls and lazers). So the DRG also decides to die once, due to AoE's and I raise him. He keeps getting hit by dodgeable AoE's. You remember when I said "I didn't AGAIN" yea well I got targeted by lazers again. I got another raise. Aetherflow, Ether, Lustrates and we manage to barely kill it.
So we go out, I got my loot actually so I'm happy. But THEN the DRG decides to say something stupid "Kick the Scholar"
Oh boy. OH BOY. I'm a based bitch, a trash talker, the salt in the ocean. I unleash my hell on this ******* **** *** dragoon. Good thing is I got support from the other healer and other party members. So we did a fast second run, smoother this time. We clear it fast and everyone goes their ways.

Small annoying things.
while leveling my AST (60 by now) I've had a few DPS trying to teach me about which card buffs go to who. So I'm a type of person who looks at peoples job, knows if SS is important to them, and I look at their current level and gear. Is it pre fight, mid fight, almost the end of the fight. I try to consider as many things as possible. Based on that I use my cards. So I use a expanded arrow, the BLM tells me to give arrow to dragoon and balance to him. Well maybe he's right. I'm not being offensive. I just explain it was all group buffs (which it was as RNG gave me spire ewer arrow a lot for some reason.)

So another run, the vault. I see the SMN using aetherflow, I had drawn a spear (pre 3.07). I give it to the ninja as he'll most likely actually make use of it unlike the SMN who just used his most important buff. So the ninja stops attacking the last boss and tells me Spear to SMN. Arrows always ALWAYS on melee. Never on casters. I just keep going. We beat it. I ask him why. He continues with Arrow has no effect on casters and that he is an AST main and knows what he is talking about.

Whats with these people trying to spread mis information. Spear is good on SMN yea, but if he wont be able to make use of it then he won't. Ninja is way safer and arrow affects caster. AST main my ass.

Ruda ex now.

2 new people
1 dps that saids nicely he is new but watched a video beforehand to not wipe us (good dps!)
The other is my fellow healer that asks why and we explain why but he just shrugs it off because he wants to learn the fight itself. This is already a very bad sign and i was preparing myself.

Two tries in a row the other healer stands in meelee range of ruda with the split and gets destroyed.
We say he needs to stand away from her cause he keeps dying
the reply "i don't want to know"
Then a short discussion of he likes to go in blind and figure it out on his own and doesn't want to follow a script but rather waste 7 others people time
We kick him but other tank left and currently waiting for a replacement.

It's more of a headache than a horror story, but here it goes.

I was healing on SCH with my girlfriend as a BRD and our friend as a leveling NIN. We end up with a paper thin DRK tank that isn't using CD's. I started out in cleric and having Selene healing, cuz ss buff is so nice. This lasted next to no time because his health kept bouncing. This wouldn't be a prob, but our NIN is rather slow since he's still getting used to it. We get through the first boss no prob, even though he didn't use any CD's during the first boss, and everyone loves kiting >.>

Going through the second area of trash had me going off on him bc he would pull two groups at a time and not use cds. Long story short, he dies and i heal tank the 3 mobs that are left bc deeps is low. I ended up yelling him to use cds and ended up kicking him for someone competent.

USE YOUR CDS!!! >.<;

Ok Ok. So I have a few but I'll start with this one cause I'm pretty sure we've all been there at one point. I had previously been leveling summoner as my main and got it to about 48/49ish when I decided to unlock and try out scholar. So I did all the class quests that I could and got the best gear equipped that I had lying around and decided to practice in the DF... only to end up in DD for the first time ever as very first ever healer run of a dungeon... aaaand I managed to somehow get one of THOSE tanks who ignore the healer and just charge straight in and pull literally everything under the sun and then blame you if they die etc >_>;
So long story short despite my telling this guy it was my very first time in the place and my first time healing it, he basically spam pulled every mob in sight until we got to the second boss, at which point I had had enough of his crap and pretty much said I wasn't going to heal him anymore and got booted from the party lol. Which was fine with me!

I am SO pissed off now, I knew what I was doing, why use Medica 2 when everyone is sitting at 95% HP or more and Ravana is casting his things? "The better healer" that died was SO GOOD that went flying from the arena on the FIRST time Ravana pushed us back. The tankers didnt use Convalescence, didnt use Foresight. I don't even know if they had cooldowns at all. And on the second try, after the DPS let the butterflies create 3 swords, it was my well timed and well-placed Divine Seal + Medica 2 + Asylum that saved everyone. Both the tanks were cleaving everyone when preyed and now it's my fault? ARGH!

Aurum Vale run as AST with one FC mate.
Tank is kinda.....ignorant....have three mobs chasing me and gnawing my butt and he just stands there busy tagging numbers on the targets (until I spam "TANK DO YOUR JOB" <se.5> like crazy).
We wiped 3 times before reaching the first boss....
First boss went down but took effort because tank and the other dps (MCH) refuses to eat fruits until reaching 5 stacks, making it harder to heal.... >_<
Second boss went down fast...without any difficulty at all....
Then when my FC mate disconnected, tank proceeds to vote kick without waiting. Told him to wait for a bit so my fc mate can reconnect back. He asked why? DPS can be replaced easily (starting to feel ticked off after horrid run earlier)

So you can guess what will happen on the last boss...TOTAL NIGHTMARE
Tank taking 7 stacks quickly, MCH deals damage to boss, and didnt bother killing the adds....so we wiped because SAME REASON twice..
My FC mate disconnected again....and got instabooted due to the vote kick =_=

Welp, that's enough for me....I'm so done...Left the tank and MCH and decided to help my FC mate with other stuff rather than clearing the dungeon with derps.

I rouletted into Haukke Manor on my AST the other day, and got a DRK with the Illuminati Quencher title, so I figured he at least knew somehow how to play the game. He's taking massive amounts of damage, but I figure whatever, we're still making it. Then he pulls the 4 mob pull and both wandering Handmaidens all at once and dies in a single set of attacks, and complains that I wasn't healing well enough.

I look at his gear... he has literally 3 pieces of gear on. A Chest, Feet, and Weapon, and none of them are two slots. He tried insisting that he could tank it just fine with only 3 pieces of gear, before promptly being kicked

Snip

'we wiped because the kyoshi family dont know the fight'

This made me chuckle lol.

I've been in a similar situation myself regarding Medica II, there's really no reasoning with folk like that just be thankful you got kicked and didn't have to eat 30 minutes to get away from those awful people.

[MXMoondoggie]

This just happened:

Not really a good idea to go leaving names in on screen shots. This isn't a name and shame forum and you should keep stories anonymous. Even if somebody is bad on your runs you shouldn't do something to make a person lose face.

[Exilon]

I thought healers like this were a myth!

I once ran CT with another sch who throughout the entire run only used CURE of all things, very rarely one or two alds and then wait for it... shadow flare. That's ALL he used throughout the entire raid. Good thing I usually go into those assuming I'll be solo healing XD
