I can make the same statement that anyone using a parser for any reason is cheating. Thus the only way you would know if the healer DPS counts is by cheating.
    Alternate ways to know:
    - Relative potency given full uptime and same item level
    - Healer percentile enmity given heal potency dealt and tank relative enmity potency thus far
    - Variance in fight duration where others' behavior is fairly consistent

    Please tell me you're not also one of those Dragoons who will try to ban people for telling them to use Heavy Thrust...

    EDIT: Also, the healer died because the tank aimed a one-shot non-telegraphed conal AoE at them (or lost enmity to the healer; I'll rewatch to double-check). That, after all, was the purpose of the video—to show that even MSQ dungeons have (on non-tanks) one-shot mechanics, as per Ama's reference on the quote prior? And that, in such cases, there's a large margin between healing to be done, and shit that's got nothing to do with healing.

    It is a one shot move to anyone but the tank, my friend knew she was dead, and you can see this with how she reacted. She did not use saints because when she got hate, she was dead. So she simply moved wondering if being too far away was a thing, like in ffxi, then tried to heal herself hoping maybe being this far away and full hp would protect her but in the end she knew she was dead. In fact she added the extra "sloppy" audio to reflect that, that was the moment she knew she was dead. The tank lacked an enmity opener while getting hit by the gaze move allowing the healer to take the A ranking hate. You can see the hate meters and who she selects to heal even with the name blocking filters. (She believes even with reacting to that with provoke / saints, with the delay the game has, it would killed her anyway, so risking death + no saints was too great, so she held on to it, that is why she didn't saints the enmity.)

    I doono about others but I find it impressive to know that much that quickly in the moment.
