Healer Confessions

[Fevelle]

...when I am stance dancing that I forget to drop out of Cleric stance too heal. I also target the wrong person for healing more often then I can count, this mostly happens with tanks though...Sorry to the Tanks out there

I have macros for Cleric Stance ON > DPS Crossbar and Cleric Stance OFF > Healing Crossbar. Lost count on how many times the hotbar changed back to healing and Cleric Stance didn't turn off and I healed for like 5-10 seconds until I noticed the low numbers and asked myself if some of my equips were broken.

I confess I am not the best healer in the game. In mechanic heavy fights there are times when I am stance dancing that I forget to drop out of Cleric stance too heal. I also target the wrong person for healing more often then I can count, this mostly happens with tanks though...Sorry to the Tanks out there

Done this SOOO many times. Or when CS breaks and I dont actually leave SC. "BUT WHY IS THE TANK STILL DYING!?!" -wipe-

Did this yesterday in Trial roul ;_; Luckily it was just Gilgamesh's bridge fight and nothing fancy >.>; Hit CS too soon, or something, and ended up temporarily confused as to why my heals were crap. |||OTL

If DPS or tanks don't make an effort to move out of AOE, I just give them a regen even if they are at less than 1000 health. I also won't get rid of any ailment that they might have got.

It's usually pretty easy to tell if they are lagging.

Oh. Before a dungeon I fish for an Arrow or Balance card to spread it. I'm very used to having a card stored on spread. So if it's at the end of the fight and I didn't draw a good card, I RR it. But then during a fight, if I get Balance or Arrow, I'm so used to having it on spread, that I click the key bind for it and end up saving it when I didn't need to.

Makes me sad.

Oh, I forgot this: ranged DPS getting 3 stacks of poison on Totorak. WHY, just WHY.

When doing low level dungeons on my AST I just keep DPSing and heal with Essential Dignity
>.>;; no one's died yet

Despite not doing it intentionally, I take great pleasure in spreading the healer disease in Alex 4. Usually if it's one extra person that gets it then no one else will, but whenever more than three people have it, it seems to spread faster than a STD at a rave for whatever reason.

More shameful, I've been so focused on DDing the second boss of Neverreap a few times that I don't bother curing or Esunaing the Bleeding status effect. I've had people die on me on the easiest boss in the game.

Hmm, that one time in Main Scenario DR (Castrum Meridianum), there's this tank who pulled all the mobs from start to boss 1 without trying to aoe aggro em. So, I healed him hoping he'll immediately aggroed em all but nope, all he did was doing his combo, not even a Flash, and then I died. So I told him, pls aggro em so that I could heal you, he said "I'm only interested in the boss." and I thought oh wow, okay. For the rest of the dungeon I no longer healed him and let the other healer do it. That one time when he pulled all the mobs before the final boss and the other healer wasn't around, I stood there, watching... as his health slowly slipping away and finally reached zero. Twas... kind of satisfying tbh. :3

Ohhhh I got a few:

The very first time I ran Aurum Vale I didn't watch a guide for it. We get to the Coincounter and the party explains the strat to me, but everything just went in one ear and out the other... Stood in every glower possible, got hit by Eye of the Beholder, and to top it off I had really bad reaction times. I died countless times on that boss, but we defeated him just before the duty timed out. Whoever I was partied with, here's a very late sorry LOL!

One time during the Ultima fight in Praetorium I noticed a black mage spamming physick on themselves, even with more than half hp. I got annoyed and said, "You don't need to use physick, I won't let you die", but in the time it took for me to type that, one of the airships came down and killed them. Yeeeaaa, sorry not sorry o3o

I left a duty because I had to eat breakfast before (I told the party too)

Kind of off topic, but still something that happened while I was healing:

I met a tank during a Singularity Reactor run that said he was cooking chicken. I noticed he went afk for a little bit, and then came back and said he had to turn the chicken. I don't know if he was lying or not, but it made me laugh >w>;

It happened today at the second set of mobs in the Fractal Continuum. So I'm laying on the floor, healing/DPSing as WHM, when suddenly my puppy runs over chasing the older dog. She steps on the keyboard and completely turns off the HUD. Literally nothing is on the screen. I'm scrambling, pressing every button to try to turn it back on and heal. I can't type to tell my party to wait and they move on to the third set of mobs while I'm casting random spells and pressing random macros. I had to reset the PS4 to turn it back on because nothing was working. Needless to say, I was kicked by the time I loaded the game.
