Healer Confessions

[Fevelle]

I just ran Fractal for Expert Roulette and... Well I let the tank die on Phantom Ray. He just died, I still don't know how. I didn't see, I didn't look at the party list, I was just there, casting Presence of Mind + Stone III on the boss with my head God only knows where. That's what happen when you come back from work at 12:25 p.m. and decide to do your roulettes.

Let an aggravating tank die in Neverreap during roulette tonight. Item lvl 170, full strength jewelry Warrior who liked to turn off defiance after pulling six to eight mobs. I'm around 183 item level and his life would drop below mine when he didn't have it on (to around 10.5k). Though it was possible to keep him alive, it was only by spamming cure II until I was oom and saying screw anyone else who might need healing. God forbid if I had to move for some reason. I couldn't even afford to ensuna because the GCD would kill him. So I waited until he turned it off again and deliberately counted to five before my next heal. He died around four. Sorry not sorry. .

Just had a tamtara run through the leveling roulette as a scholar. Tank tells

I gotta say, I have very little faith that stopping healing someone actually makes them learn without something to tell them why you are doing it. I see a lot of people just think, oh, revenge because you're a bad player, but I believe in giving chances. If someone's mistakes are making it so that I can't heal effectively or that I'm going OOM because I have to keep raising them, I'll leave them on the floor until the pull/boss is over if we've wiped, ask them if they want advice or if they are having issues. They ignore me, we keep going, I'll heal them, so long as they aren't doing something stupid, but I always make the attempt first.

Here's a super embarrassing confession: I had no idea until maybe a week ago that Shroud of Saints also helped with MP restoration.

This happens to me on regular basis, and is caused by Control Pad / Hot bar layout. While in Cleric Stance and doing DPS, I usually open with Aero II, then Aero,
Aero II and Cleric Stance are both on Hotbar 2.
Aero is on Hotbar 1 while the Bomb Dance in the same spot on Hotbar 2.

The number of times my hotbar switch goofs and I start dancing the middle of battle can be comical. I really should just update my Hotbar 2 and move the dance to hotbar 3 or 4.

I was in stone vigil today. The tank got pissed at me for dpsing and started saying "dude just heal" so i did.
All i did was heal. Only pshyick, succor and aldo. No buffs, no de-buffs, ignored all fight mechanics (like the cannons in the 2nd boss)

then she says "why didn't you do the cannons?"
"you told me to just heal. Cannons dont count as healing."
Wow im spiteful. Lol. So a 30 minute run took about 50.

A tank said that to me too once. I waited for the next big pull, used all my cooldowns, swiftcasted medica 2 and started spamming medica, riping off every single mob from him. After the mobs killed me and the rest of the party I just said "was it good enough? ^^"....I'm petty I know...

Also, I almost never have an opportunity to save the party with LB3 so when that moment actually DOES come... I forget I even can oTL.

So much this! Happened last night in a DF Alex 4 normal run. I was so focused on trying to heal people and getting the tanks back up, that I never saw the calls for "heal lb!" in chat until I was dead too.

It's a bit unfair to make the whole party pay for one snide remark...
