Yoshi P to Mr.Happy "Heal DPS is not mandatory and no expectation for Healer to DPS!"

[akaneakki]

None of you had enough time to watch it. So please, I posted it knowing full well the trolls would use it as ammo, but felt that nobody had posted any video of people having fun.

link No regen, cure 2 spam, no asylum and no assize.

Yes I did, no regen on tank and cure 2 spam.

While I said it's fine for a healer to heal. There is a major difference when a tank knows an attack that is coming up that would most likely kill him and he does nothing to even try to avoid it.

Apperently a healers job is to keep people alive correct? Just like a tanks main job is to keep aggro his is primary job, correct? Why do you expect a tank to use his cd when it's outside his main duty? You clearly expect him to use his tool but yet you don't like people expect you to contribute as much to the group. Just healing means nothing, you can spam cure 2 all day, doesn't make you great or any resourceful at all.

We understand and accept that Healer DPS is not mandatory.

By the same token, heal-idle healers must also understand and accept that giving comms or positions in statics to the heals-idle playstyle is not mandatory.

Did you magically become competent after 3 mins in?

This. I couldn't for the life of me watch more than 5 minutes of her video.

She is so bad is causes me physical pain.

It got worse! I stopped after the first two pulls. I would so annoyed on DRK because sh'e liable to rip aggro if you drop tank stance with the amount of overhealing, especially if there's Medica II spamming.

Be glad you did. The Calcabrina fight drove me bonkers.

I figured that out after the other person just went to insulting instead of simply stating it was an exaggeration. I understand what you are saying, but the way many are doing it here isn't going to make someone dps while healing. Insulting people isn't really a great way to get a point across, nor is generalizing them. Many factors can go into why that healer isn't dpsing. But many just jump to the "They are lazy" quote. Maybe they are not comfortable at the moment. That's how I was before I started doing it. I was uncomfortable, I was afraid. But people helped me ease my way into it. Fast forward to now and I'm stance dancing and enjoying it. I do offer the option of dpsing to other healers and if they want, I tell them exactly what I was told when I was starting.

Anyways, thanks for being civilized and not insulting. It actually makes the topic feel more like a discussion and not a all out war.

Guys here is a link from when the dungeon is actually new and was expert roulette.
Link And the tank isn't even in tank stance like in their video, there is aoe coming and I still don't heal it since I already controlled it by medica 2 and regen on MT.
To compare to the other person link

if everyone in forum so rational like your comment
these kind of thread will never fill up the first page of the forum
and the two side would probably never ran into a war like what we have now

She will say you are one of those "lazy healers that spam Regen and Medica II and then complain there is nothing to do".

That last medica spam on last boss when both dps trapped in the doll... no medica 2 either. Just medica 1 spam all the time.

You also didn't spam medica 1 with a party member out of range.
