    Unfortunately, with how powerful everyone is in lv 50/60 dungeons, if you're not mass pulling you're purposely wasting time.

    A healer would sooner pull themselves and stack heals on themselves than deal with a short pulling tank. It's simply the nature of this game in the layer dungeons, enjoy short pulls in the levels dungeons though.

    Look at her LS and she only has level 51 WAR, only as her tank.
    So yeah, actually, tell people you're new to the dungeon and wanna do small mobs at first so you can get use to the dungeon I guess.
    When I did DV I was scared to do big pulls but after a run or two I Pulled a lot. Some people can understand.
    But that's me because I'm stressed/scared to play tank.

    As a healer I usually prefer smaller pulls, because then I can go all out on dps with no worries. Usually I get the opposite and have a tank pulling above their paygrade and I have to babysit them with heal spam just to keep them alive and can't even toggle clerics stance on.

    you're healer...why would it bother you that you can't dps? if you're so concerned about it...go dps job? then you def don't need to worry about healing anyone, or babysit the tank.
    the most annoying thing about going as a healer, is when tank doesn't take any damage, and dps is slow, and i need to dps -.- i want massive pulls, so i can actually do my assigned job, and leave the dps to the jobs that are actually good at it, unlike shitty healer jobs
    "then I can go all out on dps with no worries" that's like saying you're going to melt butter in the fridge...

    As a healer i love the challenge of keeping a tank alive and putting out as much damage as i can. Even in full pull expert roulette if I'm " only" healing, there is no challenge. Divine seal, regen, medica 2 /sit. How is that fun or a challenge? Why not spam holy while you wait for the tank to need a tetra cure 2? and a good healer can out dps most df dps even though that's"what they're good at"

    See what I find funny is you go through the whole class quests etc with bigger pulls and then they enter the dungeon and pick 2 or 3.

    Yes if learning the class take it slow and steady, but aim to better yourself and keep adding a few extra each run. I am sort of the opposite, I over pull on first time tanking a dungeon and then apologise and slightly decrease on next pull and succeed :P

    Although, I will check and adjust my size of pull depending on which classes/level(due to some having weaker AOE's at certain levels) I have in the party.

    Can confirm. My healer friend wasn't paying attention in a Xelphatol run and let me die. Didn't stop her from tanking a big pack of mobs herself as a Scholar after. The only exception I'll give is leveling dungeons, especially if you have a poor aoe comp. Those players aren't necessarily experienced with big pulls. Once you're at fifty though, all bets are off.
