Suggestion as to how to get people to become healers.

[ThirdChild_ZKI]

You really shouldn't be surprised. The "I will only heal and not dps" healers are actually the lower skill level players. Not only does their discomfort in DPS show, their healing is just as bad. Usually involving overheals, and not using skills correctly. Like White Mages that don't manage their shroud even in normal content, it's telling enough they couldn't survive a savage encounter.

Don't be surprised if you die to a tank buster either, they can't even figure out when those hit they are standing around while you dip 90% of your HP. I've seen that with helping A12S parties.

Someone will probably pop their head out and said they cleared A12S as 0-DPS healer, and yes that is possible. But they probably did it with echo and their party carrying quite a carrying load on their backs while making them see void puddles.

The amount of conjecture in this post is stifling.

Also, 9 times out of 10, a tank dying to a tank buster isn't a healer issue. It's a failure to properly mitigate with a cooldown issue.

But anyways continue painting with that broad brush. Let's see how ridiculous this topic gets before the 22nd.
