do I hafta..

It's CT. (My fav content <3 all 3) I have every fight macroed and use realtime reminders. Heals do not cover someone ignoring/ignorant to mechanics. The hydra fight you referenced - most players don't know Stack with Purple icon, Run away with gold Icon. They don't know:stand in poison to stop spawns or to pass the tethers. Most WHMs don't know that a fresh SS allows players to dodge Heatwave. (dependant on HP/weakens) Many players get cleaved because they don't know how large the hydra's reach is. Lots of adds to help kill, when he casts discordance - HOLY BOMBSSSSS!


"should I dps as a healer?"

YES! Even if one can't manage cleric stance as of yet - get use to your dps skills! I had to spend a lot of time in low level dungeons getting use to the timing on Cleric Stance and it was the best thing I could have done for my game play.

Another good thing was downloading Advanced Combat Tracker.

Top DPS are both healers and in the same party.
