1) Healer is standing there doing nothing.
2) Healer is casting nothing. You can see casts on the party list.
3) Check the DoTs on your own target.

Essentially, big pulls are actually slowing down the group ...
You play WHM, you literally have the easiest time dealing with this situation. Holy -> Aero III -> Holy -> Holy -> Assize or whatever. You get like 7 or so seconds of free stun, and by that point most of the fiends should be dead. And should things somehow still go south, you have Benediction. Again, one of the better tools to have to deal with that situation. You just need to use them!

Heck I'll even add another tip. Pair up Thin Air with Presence of Mind and you can get 5 free Holy casts in quick succession. These are not pro tactics, this is really just stuff you should know from reading a tooltip.
