Healer Confessions

[Khalithar]

I enjoy having bad groups from time to time, it's like playing the game on a Hard or Expert difficulty.

Spoiler'd because this confession is a bit, shall I say..."revealing?"

I get this satisfying sense of sado-masochism whenever I play as a healer, which I don't get from the other two roles. While I consider myself to be bad at it, it feels really good when I'm able to DPS and keep everyone alive. I also get some kicks from "getting (too) friendly" with any of the cute characters DF pairs me up with, yet I cease this fooling around when someone makes it clear that they're not comfortable with it. This feeling is further accentuated when they are tanks. It makes me want to "bully" them, keh heh heh heh. Healing is the only role that makes me feel this way, and it makes my gaming experience that more enriching.

I've let tanks die in retaliation for them not using their aoe agro moves in dungeons. After me or other members of the party have asked/told/pleaded or begged(I have done all in a single run) for them to use it, I just focus on keeping the dps and myself upright and let the tank flounder.

That healer that keeps healing you even if you're being a dick to everyone? That's me. I'm a nice guy.

Tanking though, you pull for me too many times and I'll assume you're the tank. This isn't FFXI, DDs (DPS) aren't designated pullers for tanks to provoke off of. And healers? Please don't...

I give DPS that are prone to taking avoidable damage/dying Regens on CD like tanks. So, if you get a random Regen, it's most likely because you're bad.

EXACTLY THIS.

YES. I medica II unavoidable damage but if you are a dps and there is a regen on you its probably because I'm tired of healing you when you don't dodge properly. Its the equivalent of wrapping a child in bubble wrap and setting them free with an exasperated sigh.

My static calls this the pity regen.

Can confirm. My static calls it more like "the Regen of Shame". I even have a macro for it.

/micon "Regen"
/ac "Regen <t>"
/p Casting Regen on <t>. <se.#> <wait.3>
/p Regen has ticked <se.#> <wait.3>
/p Regen has ticked <se.#> <wait.3>
/p Regen has ticked <se.#> <wait.3>
/p Regen has ticked <se.#> <wait.3>
/p Regen has ticked <se.#> <wait.3>
/p Regen has ticked <se.#> <wait.3>
/p Regen has worn off. <se.#>

(This might be slightly off, I don't have my game open so I'm winging it on my phone)

Just so EVERYONE knows when your Regen for being a derp is active (*do not use in normal dungeons unless you want to be kicked). If I ever use this during raid, everyone starts laughing and makes fun of whoever for taking extra damage.
