Heals please? and they ignored it, and party members dropped one by one since this person not only didn't Raise me, but refused to heal anyone, and then the tank died, then the other tank died, and then the healer died. Everyone left the instance and the PF lead kicked that healer before we picked up another and got the clear.
I will say, I have noticed a couple WHMs in my pugs where they won't use their heals at the right time. For example, when we would get hit with a heavy raidwide and I Fey Blessing into Whispering Dawn, I'm still looking at about 50% health for a while because I'm expecting my WHM to chip in with a rapture or at least an Asylum. This leaves me to burn an aether stack on indom. I try not to be elitist but when it's endgame content you should know when to use your aoe heals.

And then when I'm tanking I get the medica/cure spamming WHMs so yeah, WHMs are kind of a mixed bag. There are at least times where you will see a super clutch WHM.
