My experience as a DPS and my issue with tanks

[Rae88]

Then mind telling the dps and healers to stop attacking on pull, and stop putting regen on pull. Most the time i start/stop is to try can get enmity built back up on mobs that went after the healer due tp regen, or dps who want to attack while im pulling.

I'm fairly sure Renato was commenting about tanks who like try and chain pull. That is as the last enemy is dying they run off to grab the next pack. Except some tanks do it when the last enemy still has most of the health. It tends to annoy some DPS and healers. It's a thing in some MMOs though, but there's really no reason to in FFXIV.

As I stated in my opening comment, I have played healer (WHM) up until around lv 49-50. I couldn't get into it. But I do agree with this. Playing a healer does give you a good perspective on how runs go usually and some of the difficulties you can deal with as a healer. And yes, it does improve tanking AND playing as a DPS.

It's understandable but maybe stick with it for 10 more levels? Pre level 50 White Mage is a terrible class, hands down the worst healer of the three, but the job radically changes between levels 50 and 60. You actually quit just when the job starts to get good I don't think many like WHM before level 50 though, it's pretty terrible

It does teach you really good lucid dreaming usage though

Thank you. That's exactly what I was talking about.

Hi! :-)
I might go back to it at some point. I really didn't mind WHM much at all and I didn't find it to be terrible, just a little boring. I'm used to tanking and melee classes. I will say that I started to like it a little more when I got Holy and I enjoyed the fact that they hit pretty hard regardless of being a healer. I've heard that things get really interesting when they get Bloodlily.

To be completely honest though. Healing freaks me out. They say that Tanks are the most difficult but I find Healing to be harder. One mistake or delayed reaction that causes you to miss a heal and the tank is down. It's all downhill after that. I never struggled with it or anything but it just made me a bit nervous.
