Since, a lot of content, especially level 50+ I see healers having to 100% spam every GCD on heals for mass pulls.

Guess everyone in the game just sucks.

Would love to play with one of the apparently "Good" healers in this thread that can somehow heal through tanks being brought to 40% health in the time it takes to cast a heal GCD after just healing to full with a heal GCD as well as have time to spam out Holy/Gravity (Which I know are long cast times because I also have all healers at max level). Would make roulettes so much easier to know that people would let tanks easily just mass pull while they spam DPS. Rather than you know, having tanks always dying whenever they try and attempt this
Giving your join date on the forums I'm assuming you're pretty new to this. If your healer is having to spam every healing cool down they have on trash to keep you up, It's either a) You have no idea how to juggle your cooldowns or b) You have a new/undergeared healer. I'm not saying you're a bad tank but chances are you just haven't been in a group with a good healer. White Mage has absolutely monstrous aoe damage that rivals if not beats most dps in groups, plus Holy also helps tanks mitigate damage in large trash packs since it stuns everything+assize which is another big aoe.

I literally just healed a bardam's mettle (notorious for large tank damage since trash in there hits like a truck) on my severely undergeared level 65 white mage (still in mostly ilvl 255 level 60 gear) and i had no issue keeping the tank up while blowing up large trash packs with Holy+Assize.

A healer that knows how to keep the tank up while pushing out big damage will always, ALWAYS be better than a healer that only spam heals the tank/group. That's just how it is and always has been.
