Tanks and super pulls

[dragonseth07]

Could you clarify what you mean by casually healing?

So, I have an FC mate with the same attitude as this individual. It basically boils down to it being easier to heal smaller pulls. Same with tanking. The time saved by mass pulling is irrelevant to them, and the added difficulty is just not worth it. It's not about efficiency or speed or skill. It's about being able to play with one hand, drink a beer with the other, and eventually win.

It's not a viewpoint I agree with, but it is common in this game.

Pretty much this.
its supposed to be a game...one to enjoy and have fun with. When I say casual i'm not talking about sitting on my ass and twiddling with my staff.
I'm talking about enjoying the dungeon and not having to do critical saves 75% of the bloody time.

Yes...big pulls are going to be a common occurrence...lately people however are being total ass's about it when they go wrong.

Solution in my case is to find friends who know this and will adapt for the parties sake and keep the game going...make it enjoyable...regardless of mistakes or errors.
there are many viewpoints - and I'm sure most are valid - but the one that assumes we just spam cure II like its candy and its no big deal? Is going to cost you dearly.
Problem is most just assume we are bad healers cause we can't handle big pulls. - And just in case there's debate on my abilities on this? I can handle big pulls. I just get tired of having to walk away from the game because I feel like i did a 6 hour run for a 15 min dungeon. THAT...is my point.
