    And this is why we generally view napkin math as throwaway. Unlike you, I've been in parties where a healer doesn't DPS and the dungeon timer jumps anywhere from 5 to 10 minutes depending on pull sizes. Meanwhile, I'm cleared Kugane Castle in under 10 minutes when everyone was on point. And no, they weren't all raiders either.

    Claiming healer DPS contributes only 15-30 seconds to a dungeon run displays how little you understand about numbers and why napkin math isn't a good source. Even boss fights will be spend up considerably more with healer DPS. Regardless, why should healers get to slouch along while DPS and tanks have consistently press all their buttons?

    Really? Shall I pull Sebazy's old log of Ala Mhigo where she pulled 12,000 DPS despite also having good DPS? Holy spamming does monstrously high damage. But apparently that doesn't matter.

    What does human beings have to do with anything? You either heal properly or you don't. This is a simple dichotomy. I couldn't care less about your feelings. You're a stranger to me. Does that mean I'll be rude? Of course not, nor do I expect Savage level parse runs. I do, however, expect you put forth an actual effort. If you do nothing but constantly overheal and scarcely DPS, you aren't putting forward that effort and expecting everyone else to carry you.
