Healer Confessions

[Rivxkobe]

I overheal a lot to keep me from going brain dead in duties.

Sometimes i pray for a bad tank

I am confused by this post.

Playing SCH and letting the fairy do all the healing and honestly forgetting that i'm not playing SMN for a sec whenever the tank gets low.

or my personal favorite (incoming party buster)

*puts shields on the rest of the party but one person, but still has more than enough time to get a shield on them*
me: RIP dps
*watches that dps get destroyed without a shield*
me: gg, nothing I could've done

I use to main SCH and I know these feels. Especially forgetting that I have heals that can actually do something since 90% of the time I was in CS. (And at times I would be SUPER LAZY and just heal while in CS because f**k it.)

Read my last post. Not to make things any more clear, but rather to know that this poster is not alone.

Some of us like it when things go wrong.

Everyone knows you get bonus points if you use all 3 lustrates in cleric stance, those bonus points aren't heals, but, bonus points

But I need those stacks for more energy drains. :^)

I think you mean you need those stacks to use aetherflow on, cause y'know if you use aetherflow with 3 stacks on already you get 6 stacks! right? right..?

Maybe I am misunderstanding since I don't play a healer, but as the risk of suggesting something you've encountered a lot, why don't you just contribute to the DPS if you find yourself doing nothing? I imagine you might feel it's not what you planned on doing when taking on a healer role, but it sounded like you are suggesting you just stand around a lot waiting for any excuse to heal unnecessarily. Just the other day I was helping a friend's alt through Steel Vigil where both I(as a Tank) and the Healer were end-game and you can't really help but do single, 3-enemy pulls for the most part in there. Even in Sword Oath, they were tickling me to the point that the Healer would just keep topping me up to 100% with a single spell every ten seconds or so while standing around doing absolutely nothing otherwise. In those situations, I just can't help but wonder why they wouldn't help. It's fine if it's not what you're interested in but surely if you're bored then at least that way you'll help get the run over with sooner and be done with it?

How is spamming cure more engaging than dpsing?

How is spamming cure more engaging than dpsing?

There is more than one healing spell?

And how is spamming broil/stone/malefic +dots any more engaging?
