Healer Confessions

[Igneel]

Got into Pharos it was the DPS first time, both so we wiped, Ranked blamed me, because he decided to run off with low health and not get healed first. Said it was easy if we used our brains, so since I didn't appropriate his attitude, I didn't heal him at all and said it was because he kept running out of rang, I felt bad for DPS, but first I'm chasing you down to heal you, and second if it's so easy then obviously you don't need my help right?

When I que for 8 man content, I always hope I'm teamed up with a WHM or SCH. When I'm not, I'm horribly disappointed because I've met to many AST ass-wholes. :/

I secretly hope that my pug groups are bad so that I can carry them and get a bunch of comms.

If a player rolls and take loot I need for a class they don't even have unlocked/ past 50 yet, there's a 90% chance I will abandon the dungeon. That increases to 98% if the group is silent/ slow/ bad players.

I have been known to let people die during treasure maps because I'm too busy spamming DoT's and Bliz2.

This confuses me. If they don't have the class unlocked they can't "need" roll it. And for greed rolling, in DF, everything is fair. Sure you can politely ask if people can pass some loot to you but unless you run in a class that needs the piece of gear (in which case you can "need" it) you have just as much right to it as everyone else.

What personally annoys me are people who "need" roll gear that's clearly inferior to what they currently have.

Honestly, at times I will roll need if I can't recall if I have better gear, especially at times like now where my SCH has the Eso gear, but WHM/AST have combinations of VA/Law/i185 stuff. Some of the new i195 stuff might be better and I can legitimately roll for it, but since I can't really check what my other two healers have on, I might have better, I might not. Granted, not all jobs have this issue, but it's still something to keep in mind.

Also, Glamour.

I know those points and I guess sometimes it's reasonable. Doesn't make it any less annoying though. It's not like it affects to my healing in any ways.

If my healing partner is being a brat, I tend to let them fend for themselves and let them die if they can't have the foresight to heal themselves after taking a hit.

Example #1 - yesterday I was in Sephirot normal. There were some new people, the tank I was with was explaining the fight to the new people. SCH I was partnered with Adlo'd someone, popped E4E, and Deployed them while tank was explaining fight. Tank continued to explain fight because and then SCH popped Succor + Whispering Dawn then moved Eos into the middle, pulling aggro on the boss.

At that point in time I didn't bother to heal him at all if he was going to be impatient twat about things. He almost died to the Arena cutting attack + AoE in P1 but managed to survive, much to my chagrin.

Example #2 - In the 3.1X era, I Trial DR'd into Ifrit HM on AST and got partnered with a WHM. I popped into Nocturnal and fight progressed as normal. WHM refused to leave Cleric Stance AT ALL. Never bothered to Regen the MT and never bothered to heal. The only heal they actually used was Medica II after Hellfire. Call me bitter, but I actually positioned myself close to the WHM and hoped the multi stacked eruptions would kill them as I went on as business as usual healing the group.
