Tanks, please use strength gear.. :(

[Syzygian]

I hate the former healer because I've been so many times where they don't bother to heal until i'm low HP. Then I die because defensive temps run out and I spike. This was before I switched to Strength and realized that the healers were just bad once I got my own to higher level.

I am very OCD.

You do realize that tanks have different thresholds? That kind of thinking is stupid. You heal for how much damage the tank receives. Since I play a tank and healer I know I will take as about much damage per X seconds unless i'm using a temp.

I really hate healers who sit on their butts and wait to heal.

I would rather be a DPS Tank, and full healer then a healer who has to BABYSIT DPS.

Tanks "can" do really good damage. Sure it requires a chunk of health but your still taking about as much damage as you did before.

Also, did you really put your own name in your post like a letter? Lol.

Did you really just make a post about how healers have no other contribution to a raid other than healing and while not healing are simply "sitting on their butts"?

Also, it is distinctly part of a healers job to learn to assess and predict incoming damage and react accordingly and discover as soon as possible what a tank's threshold is, so saying tanks have different thresholds and that that somehow excuses healers from playing their jobs intelligently is an argument based on the assumption that healers you run with are bad.
