dungeon helpers

[Saseal]

In really low level dungeons (Sastasha, Tamtara, Copperbell) I generally only heal the tank if they get to like 60% when we're against Mobs.

I understand what you're saying, being the truly low level dungeons, and I agree with you.

--- in regards to my example situation (and just to further explain the situation before anyone thinks I'm one of those healers that cure when 10% of a tank's HP is gone...) - the person could have just tossed a CSed heal and it could have been fine. I might have a little bit of a hard time with trust, but seeing a tank continuously below 50% - hell, 30% - with little reaction is alarming.
("they're gunna cure. /shrug ....wait, they're gunna cure, right? er, ....right? please? Forget the fhdsjk treas-okay, I don't trust you. *Physick*"). In your case, if they're freaking out over 80%, then that's silly and they're freaking for no reason

But yeah. That's the only time I have done so, with exception to the healer getting overrun with lost ADDs and I just helped to heal them in a moment gone awry.
I don't believe in "heal all the time every time!" (I've seen it. It's annoying.) but not a fan of cutting down to the line, just because it's an easy dungeon, either (which wasn't the OP's case, so I don't feel the DPS' taking over healing was necessary, for them).

I hope you don't think I was talking about you or something. I was just saying how I do stuff. My post wasn't direct at you or anything! I swear!

But yeah, I completely understand what you're saying. When I was leveling my ACN I'd heal when the healer wasn't. I've seen the tank drop to like 20% and I'd have to save them.

I'm kind of guilty of ignoring a tank's HP at times if I know we can kill the mobs before the tank dies though. >>; /nervous laugh

Ah, sorry, this is why I need coffee before I look at forums OTL (me + mornings = no). I didn't take offense, but rather just further explaining after realizing things about my first post after reading yours (I was a bit vague/open to interpretation - and I'm used to people just jumping in and tearing me apart z.z Argumentive/combative siblings who don't let interpretations go has made me overcautious... and then I get wordy x.x; ). Sorry, if I seemed it! D:

Noooo. I just wanted to clarify as well. xD I've never really seen anything wrong with your posts on here and I generally agree with the things you post. If I disagreed with anything or w/e I would have quoted you and pointed it out. I don't really like to argue though (though debates can be pretty fun). I'm pretty bad with thinking people are tearing things apart that I say too though. Especially in the Healer Forum since the healers in this forum have so many opinions and stuff. I mean you just mention Spell Speed and you'll get teared a new one.

Sometimes I am that kind of healer. Sometimes. It feels more productive than jumping about in the back of the party. And yes, well, I never said I was very professional. ;P Sometimes I even will look away from my monitor, look back, and mistake that pack of mobs up there as my party and ... charge in. Very embarrassing.
