Healer Confessions

[CyrilLucifer]

I let my tank die to Final Sting on the big pull at the second Arboretum honeycomb today because they seemed to be doing well with their defensive cooldowns and I had Asylum+Regen+Medica 2 on them, so I instead focused on getting the wall down rather than playing cautiously and keeping Cure II ready.

This has happened more often than I'd like to admit.

WHM confession: To this day I'm constantly forgetting that I have Eye for an Eye on my hotbar. I blame the fact that I had WHM through endgame for a long time before I got ACN up to the level where I had it, so I'm still used to it not being there.

Any time I heal in cleric stance I feel like the biggest doof.

To this day, I don't have Eye for an eye yet.... But it's not my problem anymore, I'm playing Astro :P

I will admit, I've seen people either not dodge, ignore mechanics and complain to the others, in a very harsh way, or just giving a new person a hard time...or a DPS who feels they should pull for the tank who didn't ask them to. Suddenly my controller dies and I go grab a beer.

Though sometimes when I'm running the vault I look at how nice everything is and people...have..died. "What a pretty sunset..Oh $%#$!"

I'll admit that I'm never fully paying attention to what's going on on the screen. I mean, when you're farming for something, things get pretty tediously boring so I keep myself entertained by watching YouTube videos on the side while spamming Cure I hoping that the tank knows what he's doing so I don't have to keep glancing back in order to whip out the big heals. Needless to say, that has caused more than one wipe before. I can't blame anyone but myself on those occasions! Though, I do try to be a bit more attentive when in a group I've noticed aren't doing too well or the run is going particularly slow.

My biggest sin as a healer is downgrading myself to 100% healbot if a tank is rude or doesn't let me buff the party for a boss. For example, I once had to slowcast Stoneskin II (previous pull got messy, therefore no Swiftcast) before the last boss of Neverreap, and at the last second, the tank pulls the boss, interrupting my cast. So I decide to just stand there, throwing out the occasional cure and letting the battle drag on and on. Yes, I am very petty, but if you want me to dps, don't interrupt me!

Knowing a tank is about to die, but the dps [who's gonna live the next hit and I know] has an add on them, so I let the tank die to keep the dps up and rev the tank after.
So like.... sometimes I just forget all sense of healing

I've been doing that with benediction. After using it several times in my last group, I've come make its use a necessary habit.

A poem.

*AST in a party.*

So much damage,
So much pain.
A click of the Light Speed,
a spam of the helios...
one would assume it would soothe all's fears.
Confusion appears,
and a new nightmare ensues.

Cleric Stance.
