Healer DPS - enjoyable or a chore?

[Lapisluzili]

To me, personally, it's a chore. A chore and stressful.

No, not because I mind pressing more buttons, but because I constantly worry whether or not I'm going to be yelled at for "not dpsing" as much as I "should"

I was already bullied into dpsing more than I am comfortable with as a healer, I don't need randoms to yell at me even more.

And by bullying, I don't mean "hey you should dps"
I mean literally being called names, useless, worthless, retarded, stupid, and other 'nice' things over and over again until I broke down to the point I suffer panic attacks if I miss a single Stone/Broil/Malefic cast.

And No, blacklisting them didn't solve the damage done.

I also suffer from Carpal tunnel Syndrome, so sometimes I will get hit with random bursts of insufferable pain in the middle of a dungeon, making it extremely hard to even continue just pressing healing buttons.
Which makes it even more of a chore. A painful one.

I do agree however that it's better than standing around and waiting for HP bars to drop; yet, I won't ever force it onto anyone.

Really wish SE would make things actually healing intensive, so that only healing wasn't basically picking my nose and waiting for HP to go down (assuming the group knows what they're doing)

This or that way, it's simply boring to constantly spam a single AoE/Single target spell over and over and over again, and shiny numbers don't make it any more fun.

It's just boring and dull to me either way; I'd rather be constantly rotating buffs and shields through the group than spamming Holy/Stone/Broil/Gravitas/Malefic the whole time.

Not that we healers actually HAVE buffs to rotate through the party in this game. (I'm talking about things like haste and stuff, not AST cards)
