    Throw your Healers a bone.

    Tired of healing and keeping alive the players who choose to duke it out for a dying node and the WAR who is chasing a wounded SCH right into enemy territory and have nothing to show for it. Our only job is to heal our alliance through whatever derp/heroic actions they commit. We can't contribute to the killing because we were robbed of Cleric Stance therefore are at the mercy of the Tanks and DPS around us to take and defend nodes and, yea huh, win matches. Where's the rewards for OUR efforts? Not even an achievement. We can keep all 24 players alive while they chase kills, rank 3rd and whilst they inch closer to their achievement, all we're left with is a poor record.

    I agree. There is also a better feeling being responsible for your own survival than hoping you're near someone who is paying attention to your HP levels.

    Lately I've seen a lot of healers playing the role of bait as well. Usually the tanks did this (for obvious HP and Def reasons), but Healers seem to be working it a lot more lately too.

    I'm kinda tired of seeing people splitting off and dying or ranged players in the FREAKING MIDDLE OF THE SKIRMISH and then people assume it's my fault for not healing...

    I main a SCH and I totally understand where you're coming from. But then, I switched to SMN and I do the same shenanigans myself. All in all, I would like to see some recognition for our efforts.

    Or those 3 people who run off by themselves into 12+ people from another GC, halfway across the map, while you're helping defend a node... and then they get mad at you for not "backing up" their suicide mission.

    I've also found myself in the unfortunate place of having a 7 DRK party. They all ran into mid, started dying, popped Living Dead, and I could only manage to save 3 of them form their own debuff, even with LB. QwQ
