    But now, it just feels so grueling! There's this sense of difficulty that makes encountering a single group of enemies rather painstaking; Divine Benison and regen on the tank, drop assylum and then I try to Aero the four enemies. After 2 Aero cast, my tank is at half-health and I go "whoa" and try to double-time my heals on him. That's... 6 seconds and suddenly we're in trouble. Then I heal him - and I do have the tools to heal him - but the urgency of it is startling.
    Regarding the bold:
    Working as intended. This is how healing should be.
    Frankly put: esp as a WHM, healing did not change in difficulty compared to SB or HW. Leveling dungeons always hit harder than experts in the end. Most people forget that over the course of an expansion, esp if they only see the experts in a totally overgeared state wearing tome gear of the previous patch, essentially being +30 ilv above the recommended requirement (and subsequently tuning target of the content).

    It is quite normal to only get 3-4 DPS casts out before the tank needs healing unless you are in your 6s Holy stun window.

    I healed every dungeon comfortably in ilv 400 Stormblood gear, except foe the last one, since I already had the 430 class gear.

    Or just learn how to heal. Yeah incompetent "IMMA DO WALL TO WALL ... CD what's that, can I eat it?!" tanks are a bit annoying, I grant you that.
    But there is nothing out there in dungeons that a WHM cannot manage.
