I just want to be clear because I see that there is sorta some confusion. I have no issues at all with OGCD healing. If it’s available use it over GCD if you want. Not here to tell anyone when you use what. My issue is when your OGCDs are on CD and we taking damage then use GCD healing.

That’s where I was going with this entire post. People make mistakes in raids all the time that will maybe make you use an OGCD heal sooner than you wanted so it’s not available when you need it. Don’t just screw over your team because you don’t wanna use a GCD heal. It’s ridiculous. I’ve literally had many and many more healers tell me “Well they got a vulnerability stack not my problem. Don’t get hit. I don’t GCD heal anyone” or “If I don’t have any OGCD heals up and rdy for raids wides then oh well” like I’ve heard it all from many healers. Allot of them have this mindset. It’s disgusting. That doesn’t make you a good healer at all.

I am a healer first before anything else. I love dps as a healer like 95% of you. No problem with that at all but when you neglect your main role. It’s disgusting and shameful. It’s like a tank who refuses to use tank stance or provoke when he needs to. It’s like a physical ranged refusing to use their many buffs for faster clear. Everyone has a role here and it needs to be played to its core. Just like we hold bad tanks accountable we need to hold bad healers accountable too. This only OGCD healing mindset needs to go.

I’m happy when healers are held accountable. I was in a group where I was healing my little heart out while my whm partner only used rapture. No lily bell, no single target healing even ogcd. Most of the party called him out. He got mad and left. I was happy. Yeah when you don’t go your job then you should be called out. I’m not asking to spam heals like it’s all you can do but come on.

Let’s be real here.
