DPs when I heal? I'm no where near max level on my whm, but I don't remember dpsing on my sch either when prae first came out. Is that fail?

Your DPS contribution is worthless. Do it for fun if you want to, but don't feel pressured to do it. You'll probably start DPSing anyway after a while due to boredom, dungeons don't require much healing.

Ignore raiders talking about Coil, it's a completely different situation, but they never fail to bring it up even though it has nothing to do with this.

It's flat-out untrue that healer DPS contribution is worthless in dungeons. The only difference with Coil is that DPS-checks, control of phase changes, and overall time allotted to complete the duty all matter much more, whereas you can be lazy in a dungeon and still stumble through.

Healers can contribute large amounts of damage in a dungeon run and should be encouraged to do so while their primary responsibility (not allowing players to die) is being met.
