I think he was the problem. His overall gearscore is under 270. He's wearing 260 armor, legs shoes, wears 265 zurvan blade and shield. Only his belt and accessories are 270.

Castle Doma doesn't have a requirement besides the level / msq one, and considering he was a PLD with 34k life and Ilvl ~265 it should be enough to be able to tank at least one group at a time. Theoretically speaking.

No it's not enough! and it should have requirements! Please do me a favor and level up your healer and then ask a FC mate tank to equip a mix of Lvl61 and 63 gear an play Doma Castle!

I feel like it technically COULD be enough. It certainly isnt good or acceptable but I feel like taking it one pull at a time with a competent party and proper cooldown usage it could work out.

Again very inconsiderate of the tank and if they're the type to do that they probably don't manage their cooldowns very well but still.

Lvl65 dungeon Bardum Run dropps 276 Gear
He was equipped with an overall ~267 Gear. If melded, with even better stats.
So, he was at max 9 ILVL behind the maximum he could have. That's not much.

When i ran Doma Castle, i had a mix of 262 HQ gear and 265 dungeon gear equipped. The run was absolutely smooth, with the healer even dps-ing.
I honestly don't see why he shouldnt be able to finish the dungeon in 267 gear.
Especially, since you *could* have stopped dps-ing and full time heal instead... but refused. *points at your screenshot above*

The problem is that the gear he's wearing has far less armor stats, than he could have and that would make him less resistant against the enemy damage. The Anima lux is outclassed by the dungeon weapon you getting in Doma Castle. He's wearing a 265 gs weapon wich you can get in Shisiu

My problem is: why wouldn't he do some Bardum runs (4 or 5 should be enough) to replace his older gear or/and get a far better weapon instead of going undergeared in a dungeon and mocking Healers.

And no, I don't go full heal because the tank has not appropriate gear! If the dungeon would be so hard to go "full heal", then I would do it.

Well, i wouldn't call it "mocking healers". He simply said you should maybe stop dps and heal more to avoid deaths.

Yes, he maybe wasnt beeing the nicest of tanks... but you, as the healer, refusing to do your job simply because you think the tank doesnt deserve your heals? You are not any better than him in this specific case.
Adapting to your group and doing your utmost best to finish the dungeon should be everyones priority. You negletted that, for what reason...? Because you didnt thin the tank was "worthy" beeing healed full time?

Adapting the group? If everyone give his fullest, I'll adapt even if it mean "go full heal". To be geared appropriate for the content you're joining is also giving the best AND showing respect to other players.

This is why I leaved the run after 5 minutes and get the 30 minutes lockout. Because I don't want to hinder the others with my playstyle. Maybe they found a healer whos able to hold him up AND have fun too! But not me

Forgive me for my sarcasm, but i am sorry someone looked wrong at your icecream, making it taste so sour you had to throw it away.

Honestly, the way you behave is unreasonable and doesn't fit someone who claims he feels bad when he is undergeared. If the tank is lacking a bit of resistance, the healer will have to heal a bit more. THAT is adapting. You are just riding your high horse and ignore your own faults in this case.

I think you're right. I shouldn't play any healer class anymore

Clearly that was the main statement of my post...
