    I loved healing to Shadowbringers, and now I hate healing.

    Also as a whole the skill level of healers seems to have dropped since than. I have far more deaths now (which is sad considering the kits, and less dps tools to use) from lack of healing than I had prior to Shadowbringers (and I'm not talking about deaths when I die due to mechanics and not getting healed back right away).

    I don't mind dying to an occasional slip, especially if the healer is new to the role (and since many prior healer mains are playing other jobs, there's a greater chance of that) ... what irks the crap out of me is when the healer lets the whole group ride at low health after unavoidable damage, while they furiously mash their precious few DPS buttons trying to parse higher.

    On that note, I've gotta admit, duty finder PUGs are more pleasurable while people are waiting for a plug-in update, and healers seem a bit more willing to cast that extra heal or two. I can see why Square doesn't provide an in-game parser. :P

    The only HP that matters is the last one. If your too chicken to let HoTs handle topping you back up, or sitting low until my next instantcast is ready, then you come on healer and do it yourself.
