    I didn't say you weren't capable but everyone can get better. Also I haven't had a run yet that drastic so I think you had bad luck.

    But then you backtrack and say

    By the second part I meant if someone made a mistake and got hit by say Sacrament, they were down quite a considerable about of HP. Or when Blazing Scourge hit the two players, it took them down 1/2 to 3/4 of their HP (not grouped together). That's tank buster territory on DPS. Meanwhile the tank is getting smacked and a raid AoE damage is coming out. Many are right in the sense that this is going to separate the Good Healers from the Decent Ones, basically Vault 2.0, but again that should be the place of Savage mode, NOT story.

    Savage raiders need to get out of this thread because it doesn't apply to them. This mode is for the casuals, the majority of players.

    I think this is going to boil down to an opinion of what should be considered standard of your job role at this point in the game. I personally don't feel normal is at savage level but so far I have only been in A9S so take my opinion for what it's worth.

    At this point it might not hurt for devs to consider doing solo job quest with npc companions as a story mode for raids. I don't think it would hurt too much and it would make people happy that only want to see story and make others that want more party oriented battle content happy by not having people forced to join that said content simply to see said story.

    It's bad enough I'm a DRG main
    For what it's worth I totally agree that A11N is worse on healers.

    Let's not presume everyone who disagrees with you does Savage raiding. I, for one, have never stepped into Savage content. At least not yet. That doesn't mean i want the easier content to be such a joke I barely need to pay attention. Frankly, that's among what I feel bores people with the constant dungeon grind. A12 is the final fight in a year long raid and you expect it to be faceroll? Okay. Here's what you do. Wait a month and cap 1800 Scriptures. Use said Scriptures to upgrade your body and legs to ilvl 260. Go forth and proceed to murder Alexander. Problem solved.
