Biggest pet peeves when it comes to dungeon runs?

[Nestama]

It's not a huge deal, but one bad thing about Regen during a pull is that it makes it more difficult to grab everything while pulling.

Once I get close to a group of enemies I get proximity aggro, which means they all converge on me in an organized fashion to eat the AoE. If I have regen on, however, nothing converges on me, instead once I'm in proximity everything runs past me. This means spread out enemies don't gather towards me; a close by enemy will have run past me by the time a far away enemy is in range; etc.

Not really? If the healer is good, they are going to be near you at all times and therefore make it easier for you to use your AoE combo and even if you miss a few, the healer isn't going to die in 2 seconds because they have the resources to keep themselves alive even while moving.

Usually the healer isn't near me at all, and can barely keep up during pulls, and I'm not even sprinting. I actually have to stop and wait a lot of the time. I can pick up the adds in most cases, by pre-aoeing when they start running past, but it is still a minor annoyance.

As a Scholar player - yeah, because pretty much all of my abilities have a cast time. My main healing spell, aldoquium, takes 2 seconds on initial cast, and 2.5 on a re-cast. If I have to keep multiple of you alive while you're kiting, taking a lot of damage, there's NO WAY that I can keep up with you running without stopping.
This exact predicament in reverse is my personal pet peeve - when my tank refuses to wait for me and I can't keep up/ keep them alive because I don't have time to cast my spells.

If you have to heal during the pull then the pull is bad and should be aborted.

The reason tanks NEED to keep moving forward, and can't always stop to pick up aggro on all stragglers, is because they have to stay far enough ahead of the mob of enemies to not be taking damage. If the mob catches up to the tank then the pull is a failure and the group should just stop where they are and fight.

Well yeah, that's my problem. Tanks need to move forward, yes, but if the healer can't keep up with them while casting healing spells, they are going to die eventually no matter what. That's the issue.

You can always pre-cast an adloquium on the tank before they take off running into a horde of mobs, it'll shave off some of the damage from auto-attacks while they run to the next group of enemies. Now with that being said, only 3 of Scholar's heals have any sort of cast time attached to them, and you'll generally want to avoid using Physick like the plague. Instead, what you want to do is utilize your off global heals first and foremost along with your Fairy's abilities.

Yes, and they are my 3 best source of consistent healing. I understand the basics of how to operate my class, and use all the tools at my disposal - I'm talking about situations where doing that I simply cannot keep up with a pull. It's common enough for me to run into issues with this while using duty finder. I'm far from perfect, and it's definitely my fault sometimes.

"If the healer is good" then pretty much anything weird or inconvenient they do won't actually be a problem. Plenty of healers who pregen also lag behind and don't know what to do when they get aggro, though.

Honestly, I can't even remember the last run where the healer was actually anywhere near me during a pull, but that's not entirely on them because they don't have gap closers like tanks do.
