Gear up son...

[TheLastDream]

Been playing my DRK and WHM since queues have been bad for DPS (Rather play my NIN) So I've been healing 70 dungeons and some of these Tanks want to pull mobs like this is heavenward still.... I check their gear at its 282-290 stuff and they are just getting wrecked and keep trying to double pull. So hopefully this reaches to somebody. Remember healers can't heal through everything..

Thumbs up, plus tanks need to gauge your dps capabilities first, if nothing is dying, healers only have so many ogcd abilities and mp to keep you alive.

Bottom line, if there's not at least 1 SMN or BLM...big pulls will be bad. At least in my experience.

Should Note: A competent SMN or BLM

Thunder IV > Blizzard IV > fire III > Fire II > Fire II > Flare > Flare > convert > flare and foul when it comes up.

Very few tanks could mantain aggro from me when I do this on big pulls. It is not every pull that I have lucid dream, so even with a good BLM you need to rely on your skills to keep aggro

I'm going to be that guy and say Fire 2 is a waste.

The only reason we fire2'd in heavensward was because some cast was better than no cast.

With the level 68 trait, the two flares more than easily fill up the time waiting on transpose.

Blizz 3, Blizz4, T4, Fire3, Flare Flare, transpose, Blizz 4, Flare Flare. Fit in procs and foul as they come.

So you, as a healer, are having trouble keeping up with the tank's pull?

Maybe you're the one who needs to "gear up". Eh?! Anyone?! :'D OK...

No but seriously, when I used to heal in WoW, I remember that if wasn't spam-healing the tank, they WOULD die or come very close to dying. There was very little else I could do.

Now I know in FFXIV, healers don't often need to spam their heals on the tank like a Black Mage spams Fire III. But if I'm tanking 2-3 packs of mobs, THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO!

Pick up the pace, yo!

I will keep that in mind, I heard that later dungeon mobs hit pretty hard now, and with all the nerfs that have happened gotta take things slow.

They were prolly in dps stance wearing all str accessories..

I've been doing big pulls in all the dungeons so far, granted I'm only 65 - and I use vit accessories / and I use tank stance. I'm sure the 70 dungeons will hit pretty hard until I get enough lv70 gear...

Nah, I'll be fine :P
