Some healers make me panic

[fumofu]

I absolutely hate this kind of healers who tries to 'push dps' at expense of more healing. Good healer is the one who keeps me alive and don't make me feel like I could die at any moment. Healer dps isn't really such a big deal. Now, if healer dps and:
1) any dd dies - now that's a big dps loss.
2) tank dies - possible wipe
I'd say big risk for... little bit of extra dps healer provides?
I'd rather have healer just heal and throw dps once in a while when it's really safe than recklessly pushing his dps and risking failing his job which is... KEEPING PARTY ALIVE!

You need to chill.

I've seen healers drop me to basically nothing and pull me back up. Until a healer gives me reason not to, I assume they know what they're doing. The power of healing in this game is wasted by keeping the tank topped off.

It's true that if anyone dies it's a DPS loss. However, if no one dies, it's a DPS gain. The fact really is that the more DPS a healer puts out, the less they need to heal.

Obviously I will take measures to ensure the tank won't die before I start Holy spam, like casting Divine Bension. However, if a DPS dies because they were sitting in some AoE, that's their fault. I remember someone reported a healer for DPSing when he was standing in AoEs, and the GM sided with the healer.

I had a healer try to DPS + heal me when they first did the healing nerf, it didn't go so well. First mob I died, then after that I started watching my health bar. Was slightly stressful at first, but no deaths after that point.
