    Stupid reason to report someone

    I got reported because I didn't do damage, as a healer.

    I've been healing a9-12 normal regularly and the number one cause of wipes is the other healer does damage and puts all the healer pressure on me.

    I do not dps as a healer. It is a choice I make.

    Now I was doing a guildhest on an alt because i'm really bored with this game anyway and some dark knight goes and tells me to dps. I took it less than well and I told him off. Then he went off to tell me I was getting reported and proceeded to kill the stupid turtle.

    I am not having a good day.

    If you blew up on them and started to be less than nice, then yeah, that's grounds for reporting. Don't tick people off, even if they're in the wrong.

    If they were reported for harassment that fine, if they were truly reported for not dpsing as a healer then yea that is stupid reason.

    If a healer has time to stand around, jump around, emote, sit down, make a coffee while waiting to heal, they have time to help dps. If the tank is squishy and constantly dipping in health quickly, then go ahead and pure heal. If DPS stands in AoEs and goes down quickly, their problem. As a healer, it's a matter of laziness with dps. Time to lean, time to clean. If you can stand around for awhile, you can dps.

    With proof that he did it intentionally, she could.

    She already has proof. he is a DRK, which means he is required to have already cleared that guildhest before, and if you go all out fighting it, u cant accidentally be carried through it.
    He knew what the goal was, and they can see he killed it.

    She didnt actually say not to ever DPS, she said your primary goal is to heal, and only if its actually possible to heal and DPS, then you do it.

    Honestly when Im a healer, the ONLY people who ask em to DPS more, are always the tanks who are in a constant state of near death.
    Tanks who require little to no carry, seems to never ask for the healer to DPS. (Obviously I am already, so this only applies when someone else is healing, and they were telling me later they decided to DPS for once, because the tank wasnt dieing.)

    Uhm, no - none of the guildhests are required for anything at all (excepting unlocking other guildhests of course.) AFAIK you can go through the entire game and do everything else in it without ever doing a single guildhest.

    Yes, not DPSing when you have more than enough room to is being lazy as a healer. Reporting them for that alone, however, is a huge stretch and frankly makes you the one coming off as a hostile player. Which IS reportable, especially if you start throwing parse numbers at them.

    But I don't see 'healer's refusal to DPS' anywhere in the User Agreement that it's a punishable offense. You can ask them to and remove them from the party if they refuse, but reporting them won't get you anywhere.
