    I wasn't referring about their choice of healer. It's more about their general response toward initial sign of pressure. I wrote Malefic & Asp Helios in my replies earlier only because I see you're an AST main on your forum profile.

    Those healbots do not handle pressure really well. It doesn't matter which healer they pick. If they can't properly capitalize the use of Cure II/Benefic II/Adlo/E.Diag/Medica II/Asp Helios/E.Prog/Succor properly at the first sign of pressure(s), then it won't matter which healer they're using on hand. They're just pressing anything at that point and 'hope for the best'. If there's a WAR/PLD that threw out Shake it Off/Divine Veil to help them in a pinch, chances are good that they probably would think "Oh wow my Medica II worked!" if that somehow bailed them out.

    That's the extent of their lack of awareness.

    Now throw these healbots into those... hell, no need for 100% healing uptime situation, just make it 60% uptime. Oh the carnage lmao

    In my experience, people that are considered to be healbots also are incapable of raising without Swiftcast. I've ran alliance raids on a DPS job with weaker healers in the party and people who die usually stay dead for up to an entire minute with no attempt made to raise them.
