Kind of a double standard there guys, don't you think? If I don't DPS as a healer I'm lazy, but if I help heal when I'm not a healer, that's bad. I don't really get that, but okay, I guess I'll just find my own little niche, whatever and wherever that is. Thanks for all the input guys, but I really think I should find somewhere else to play. Enjoy your gaming guys, I had a kinda fun month here. :-)
I think you are missing the point. The goal of the party is to defeat monsters, plain and simple. Healing party members that need health indirectly helps with the goal, over healing and stand around doesn't. If you are standing around for 2.5s without needing to heal, you could have cast some kind of dps that helps with the over all goal, killing monsters. Alternatively if you are dps that is just curing other people you aren't helping with killing monsters are you.
