I wouldn't have to stress using 50% of my mp within the first idk 30secs of the fight due to lack of healing from said other healer.
    Kokytus opening from EX1 trial, isn't it?
    The reduce to 1 HP occurs roughly around 15s after pulling, and you have about another 18 - 20 seconds before any next damaging raidwide happens. News flash: almost all healers heal over time abilities/spell coincidentally have this duration, so you can virtually slap any party regen, maybe 1 or 2 then go back to dpsing while the regen do their magic for you.

    There is absolutely no need to top up everybody to 100% right away in that 20 seconds window, save the tank because they're taking auto attack damage. There are so many ways to do this. If you decide to spend 50% MP to top up everybody, then your healer made the CORRECT choice to not put out any additional healing because they will be wasting your 50% MP.

    Take a deep breath, and heal calmly.

    If I don't heal said Kokytus and the other healer isn't healing should I just expect a wipe then? Since neither of us I guess want to heal? No I cure 3 immediately since I know there is a stack mech coming up and everyone should be top off for that to get ready for another aoe hit. Which at that point I expect the other healer to help out with some form of healing take turns not just leave all the healing to one person.

    There is a lot of time between cure 3 immediately and the stack happening. You immediately starting to hardcore gcd heal tells the other healer to dps instead. That's the message you are sending.

    Then one of you (or both) should get out of that farm party and go back to practice PF because either both are unaware of the mech or not up to heal. I did said "18-20 seconds before any next damaging raidwide happens.". You can sit on 1 HP all this duration and nobody save the tank will die because no damage will bring their HP to 0 in this window. This is the perfect time to let regens shines (asylum, physis, whispering dawn, celestial opposition, special mention earth star). Do not underestimate the potency of healing over time.

    The trick is -not- force yourself to do all the legwork yourself. You said it yourself: you expect other healer to help out, so do not prevent them.

    "Prevent how?"
    By healing everybody to 100% right away, with your Cure III spams. Leave the other half for them. You heal nothing when you throw healing at a player with 100% health.

    Seems you need to learn fight timers and stop wasting mana inefficiently to me. You are sitting here complaining, and at the exact same time telling us why you are healing badly.
