    no healer in his right mind wouldn't heal his own party tank cause he isn't main tank,seriously if such a healer exist it would be humiliating as someone playing a healer to know such stupidity exists.
    Every kind of bad attitude players exist. Even if you hear the most ridiculous description, there is a chance far from zero that it actually happens.

    Well if the general raids dps wasnt as poor as ive seen in a lot of runs i would be able to survive holding the tank without heals sure(sometimes its been so bad ive had a 3rd crate drop on Glados with the boss still with 10% hp...) But healers still need to do their job regardless.

    Folks just really need to treat the tanks like the other adds, have party A handle the SW one, party C handle the NE one, and party B... idk. But if folks started coordinating like this we wouldn't have this problem.

    Signed, a healer who keeps needing to scrape DPS off the floor when it turns out no tanks went to our tank.

    Dear Tanks,

    Please don't point the enemy tank at the rest of the alliance, killing an entire group and a few others from another group. It's just rude.

    Signed,

    A Healer


    In all seriousness, I can't say I've seen people not healing tanks terribly often... It's still more than I'd like, though. At times I'll see a so-called "green dps" pew-pewing instead of tossing their tank some heals (please do your job... wanna dps? queue dps), so I'll tend to them. The above situation I mentioned, though... It just came out of nowhere and I couldn't help but laugh. I think that situation eventually led to a wipe from what I recall, too, but meh... it happens. Can't expect a perfect run, every time.

I am not trying to fight the current main tank for aggro, nor am I purposely taking unnecessary damage, I am merely maintaining my place on the threat table. If the main tank happens to die, they did, I expect my healers to be supporting me. I don't wanna hear any bullcrap that I am fighting for dominance, or that because I am not the MT I don't need to be healed. The point is "I" am in "YOUR" party, so you are supposed to support us first, and the other parties second. But what do I know, I just main healer and care about my party's safety.

    Fruckin Pleeb. Yes this is a real thing that happened to me. A healer in my party, for a WoD run wouldn't heal me because I wasn't the MT. Meanwhile the other Tanks kept dying because they were new and inexperienced and so, as it should, threat defaulted to me. But because I "wasn't the MT" they wouldn't heal me. Which caused me to die, and nearly wiped us several times. Even though at that moment I was the MT. Yeah, to say I was bitter is an understatement.
    Yikes. This is where I'd vote kick the healer.

    Though it was WoD so there would probably be a loot timer keeping their deadweight butt safe the whole run...

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]

    It's true. It pissed me off so much, my friend who I I qued with was worried, since I was letting it get to me so much. Thank god for that AST in our party. He tried but I swear that other healer didnt wanna heal anyone but the "MT".

    I like helping people with their Job ideas, it's fun to help them visuallize and create the job they'd like to play most. Plus I make my own too, I'll post them eventually.
