    Pretty out of the topic, but...

    I feel like the healers quality has fallen so much with the expansion, at least on the pugs I participated, the more grotesque mistakes have been made by healers, maybe they've got too comfortable with the game current state overflowing with dps left and right and healers being quicly invited for any group that they don't even botter looking up for guides for EX fights before joining in?

    From playing both the Healer and DPS side, being a healer right now is painful. Unless its a decent paladin or decent dark knight tank your tank is in general going to be pretty damn squishy and the higher on average damage output also means that DPS tend to take a lot more damage then they are used to. With a lot of tanks just chain pulling like this is ilvl 260s in dungeons balanced around 215s it is common to see healers basically running a marathon through the dungeon at half MP with barely anything to lend in DPSing the groups down. Commendations out to the helpful BLMs who keep throwing MP at the healers between pulls.

    Then you got DPS who refuse to or have not adapted to the new and new/old AoEs. Its not surprising to see big mistakes from healers, they are running at a very different pace then the other classes right now.

    That's because looking at a guide is not helpful without playing it. When the content is new, the guide can also be incorrect.
