I might also observe their gear, because if they look like a high end raider, that give me an indicator that they're more likely in control and if the gear is low, I'll know I'm dealing with a lower geared healer. I also do the same with the tank when I'm healing them, because it might help indicate what I'm also able to get away with too.


But yeah, until the healer actually runs into trouble, I'd trust them. And 1 or 2 deaths or wipes is not a big deal.
Yeah how I see it there's a difference between a healer letting your HP edge while spamming their GCD heal and one spamming their DPS. When it's DPS I'm assuming they know what they're doing and trust them while otherwise I might adjust, indeed going to depend on how the healer performs. Had very few encounters where healer just spammed dps while letting me die.

That's when I'm playing tanks other than WAR at least, being a WAR (at max lvl) you usually don't even need a healer so I'm not really worried regardless lol.
