Had the same thing happen when I tanked, than I switched to a "you pull on purpose you tank" policy, got betterI don't want to tank because I pull slowly. Not snail slow, but I don't like pulling fast or pulling too many. It's a self-confidence issue. And in the last game I tanked in people did NOT appreciate that at all. They wanted FASTFASTFASTFAST. Even when I said at the beginning of a dungeon I didn't do that, people still got pissed about it. They would pull themselves or just flat out leave. So I stopped tanking cause I'm not putting up with the stress and bull. *shrugs* But that's just me.
And when I'm "forced" to DPS as a healer, I go on a "ok I'm DPS" policy and let the tank die, got better too![]()
People don't know how to take criticism anymore, and bad play is rewarded with with a coddling mentality. Yes, this is a casual game for the most part - that doesn't mean people need to walk on eggshells in fear of getting reported for pointing out things. This whole 'please don't say anything even slightly negative' mentality that we seem to be going towards and the devs seemingly pushing towards it is creating a disturbing trend.
Of course, because playing well is optional here. Welcome to the XIV culture of "I play like crap because you don't pay my sub."
You must be so proud for contributing to it.
Not at all, I did not say I don't DPS or stance dance, I do it all the time by myself don't worry about that.
I just have that attitude with a**hole that do not even let me the time to buff everyone and "require" (almost ordering me) to DPS. Not acting like a "I play like crap because you don't pay my sub", just remembering d**head that they do not have to "order" me to do my job*
*Edit : Especially if they did not say hello before![]()

Fair enough. Carry on, then. :PNot at all, I did not say I don't DPS or stance dance, I do it all the time by myself don't worry about that.

Maybe the tuning for healing will lower this disconnect. Most other games have more then enough incoming damage dpsing healers isn't a thing.
Also something the OP miss with his picture. The game tries to go dps melee+range. I leveled bard and blm during ninja craze. Ques were instant since range bypasses two melee in que. The more you know![]()
