The new raiding meta is making me want to quit.

To the two scholars posting about it - I've never seen it, but I definitely appreciate the input on it. I also tend to avoid Scholars like the plague because more often than not, there's a healing issue somewhere and they tend to say "Sorry I was dps'ing' which just makes me roll my eyes.

Well, to each their own experience on it - I'll have to try out scholar's sometime.



No one thinks that it's bad for Tanks/Healers to add DPS to the fight. It's moreso the meta that demands the Tanks/Healers to solely DPS that people dislike. This meta wherein Warriors are trying to tank in Deliverance, and then are surprised when Sword oath Holy Blade Dance one shots them, or a Dark Knight without grit "Well I had shadowskin up" for a one-shot.

Unfortunately most of fights in raids are designed way that second healer is only helping with tank buster or some huge dmg, otherwise 80% cleric stance. And its not only because you need dmg but also because there is nothing much to heal as second healer. Btw thordan is pretty much solo heal fight. By solo heal I mean solo healable by whm maybe as AST too. AST solo heal should be ultimate there cos you dont need to waste tank lb after meteor phase.

Anyway regarding you comment about "sword knight". He should be always "tanked" in Deliverance and on Holy Blade Dance your tank should use Holmgang. Its most optimal way to do it that way.
