Dear PLDs

[Chrono_Rising]

I’ve personally never seen this happen. I’m more tilted by paladins stopping to clemency themselves after pulls. Like just run and aggro things I’m well aware you aren’t at 100% and I have no intention of stopping to heal what a few server ticks will heal on its own.

But I can get why clemency spam gets annoying, particularly on scholar though that reason may go away soon. I have plenty of oGCDs to juggle tank hp and dealing damage, so why not join in the aoe fun on tank and burn down the mob faster. I firmly believe kill time is the best mitigation lol.

Would you please STOP SPAMMING CLEMENCY? Especially when you (or any party member) have more than 75% of your HP.

Thank you.

Your healers.

I never know when to use it anyways tbh.

In dungeons I’ve only found it helpful if you see your HP low, not moving, and your healer spamming you with heals. The extra clemency can buy time to get up a regen instead to deal with the extra damage/buy time till a cooldown comes up.

I find this happens if the tanks don't trust or feel comfortable with the healers. I have seen both sides where I'm the tank and the healer is not keeping me alive - i will use clemency to get me back up every time. (this is primarily for 4 man content in PUGs) clemency is there for a reason and if the healer is lagging, or for whatever reason letting my hp go below 20%, I'm casting. As healer, I have seen this and if the pld wants to constantly use clemency, i give him a regen and i dps.

At the end of the day, if casting clemency prevents the party from wiping i'll cast it all day long. I do see the OP's and others opinions and thought i'd offer mine.

Not worth the new topic? It's a forum/ messageboard , if not here, where?

Honestly, seeing this just makes me want to use clemency more.

Dear Tanks (yes all 3) -

If I'm your healer in Duty Finder, please use your CDs as you see best - we don't know each other and what we're capable of doing or not. To my static tanks - how low can you go?

Fondly,

Hey. As a pld main, I tend to Clem myself when I see the healers dots getting ready to fall off. Lets them smash a few dps buttons and makes me feel better about not dying.

Hmm...Adjust?

As someone who has all 3 healers at max level, whenever I see a fellow healer get triggered this much over Clemency it makes me wonder if said healer has mental/emotional issues. All this complaining over a tank healing himself. Who really cares? Honestly, as a healer it gives me more chances to dps on my healers and not have worry as much.

As a fellow healer, I think you need to seriously consider another profession.

I don't trust most random DF healers in general when I do anything on PLD. I had a healer in expert once who let my HP drop to near death levels cause she was too busy spamming Holy to notice. Not even a Benedication or Tetra. So when I see my HP really low (mostly below 10k) I'll start healing myself.

Git Gud and do your job and I won't have to Clemency to keep myself alive while you tunnel vision dps or watch netflix.

P.S:

Dear healers,

Stop putting Regen on your tanks before they do mass pulls. It's annoying and not productive and you get aggro and mess up melee rotations cause the tank has to grab mobs off your ass.

Sincerly, a fellow healer and a PLD.
