Someone please explain

I’m not a PvP expert, but this is what I like to do. I always mark healers with O and X on my team. It's useful to see where the healers are at a glance to see if I'm running out of range of their heals. I then usually mark enemy to attack as 1. Usually whoever has most medals on the enemy team will get marked as 1. Ideally everyone should attack the marked player, but doesn’t happen all the time.

Most of the time DPS classes were marked.

Yes what I mean is your healer could have been the one to set the marker (or your tank, if you were the healer in a 4v4) - but healers themselves can't DPS so it's not like they can do anything after marking if their team's DPS players don't react accordingly.

I need a cross server friend list and add you there

lol, thanks for the compliment, I am usually good with reading implied meanings.

Yeah, I've noticed that the chat does not work. Didn't know that fact. I wanted to ask that question in chat but couldn't.

Do you see this, SE? This is the only real result of the chat restriction.

Players with questions can't ask their teammates and suffer losses for it.

You have a point, however unless you make up a party and go in your technique may not work. Depending on your role, which I've seen several times, Tank usually sticks to Healer while others focus on support. Usually BLM/SUM >>>MNK>>>NIN and try to ignore range just because it's a waste of time unless they are bound. Sometimes you can just go with the flow and stick with the most competent person you can find.

That is entirely wrong. Bards and Machinists can explode almost anyone in just a few seconds. BRD can literally delete someone within a GCD. Left unchecked, I've torn through at least 3 people within 10 seconds. . . Ignoring them is an easy way to set yourself up for a loss.

What world am I in that ranged should be ignored @@

Ranged BRD/MCH are probably the most terrifying classes to heal against because they have the stupidest strongest burst that can literally 100-0. I always keep them focus targeted because I need to know when they are prepping in advance because they are so dangerous and harder to react to. It's good practice to CC these ranged classes when you see them setting up burst, so BLM/WHM Sleep, Tank stuns, or just line of sight them if they are targeting you or even just straight bursting them first. So no it's never good to just ignore the ranged, and I don't see what binding has to do with it.
