Healer Confessions

[The_NPC]

will post this cause its the 1st time I "accidently" let a DPS die, I say accident but I & probably the DPS saw it as intentional

Fractial-1st boss: BLM is the DPS in question, just sits at the farthest from boss possible & gets hit by 1 of those big Cone AoE's he throws out twice (I healed them back both those times, will state s/he did "try" to dodge, using try loosly here, but being so far from boss made the cone max/no-escape time size) I now think "okay u do that again no heals for u" which they did (their at half HP now) I think "Good now u'll dodge cause u'r not getting healed"... next big cone their at max distance... half-assed dodge atempt... dead BLM (boss HP 20%) my thought in order "O.o">"-_-!">"Fuck it no raise for u"

BLM try'd to insult me for not healing lucky me PLD tank backed me up.. can't remember what I said back but it was something about standing closer

I feel you there, I was healing Aery for the first time yesterday and had a bard who kept standing as far away from me as possible. They took a lot of damage from the first boss and it came to a point I was like "screw this, it's the tank or you" and focused on keeping the tank healed. They moved a bit closer after that...but not much.
