Why you should play a healer!

[Vyriah]

Well I'm a savage player too. Why does it always fall back to that us vs them rethorics, that's not the point.

I'm talking about playing a class for something like... 4 years ? I pretty sure I saw both Cyn and Sebazy talking about ARR raiding and they way they talk about the game is close the friend that introduced me to this game. I didn't said that to say they're elitist pricks, I do understand where they come from and why they're saying that and I said, talk about job complexity to DPS playing since ARR and they will tell you that it's nothing and that healer/tanks are worse.

Having years long exeprience in playing your, strating by it's most barebone incarnation, make easier to get than it is that would look by its lv70 standard. I'm talking about a more recent point of vue, not conflicting against "savage players" whatever that could mean.

It may not look like it, but I'm doing all possible effort to not turn that into a semantic nitpicking but having rotation and such works as guidelines that make the job more clear and intuitive into what you're required to do. Everything that you need to use to be efficient is told you little by little through the game. Rotation, placement, burst phases, ressources management aren't hurdle that you have overcome but the actual main attraction of the job, the thing that'll allow to step your efficiency.
The reason why heal doesn't have combo is pretty obvious : if you would to cast cure to cast medica, precasting medica for an AoE would require you to use a wasted spell to get what you need to do. On the other hand, their MP cost is much higher. They don't do the same thing so the way they're limited is different but going into "this as a whole is simple and this as a whole is complex" is a very slippery slope.

I'm glad for you that you didn't have to go through those other player that will monitor your cast bar and search trough your logs an occasion to tell you you're that bad healer. Commend is another matter entirely, people commend healer and tank because less player are playing those roles. And the main reason is because they won't have to cross those "you only have to use a single skill and you can't even do that".
So they play DPS, like most of the player of the game that don't seem to be that impressed by DPS's kits.

Eh, pretty funny that everytime I try step in to defend lower skilled player my own achievement are instantly downplayed. I killed NeoExdeath (recently, but still) and had a regular ~85% on SCH before I chose to drop it in this patch. I think I'm a reasonnably fair player too.
Also I have done Savage content on DPS, even if only a few and will surely do more later on.
