Dear Physical Ranged DPS and..

[SturmChurro]

Hate to break it to you, but the healers who push damage (read: healers who are actually participating and contributing instead of twiddling their thumbs) generally aren't the ones wiping groups. They care about playing optimally and usually know their toolkit inside out and how to use it efficiently.

The "pure healers" are interestingly enough usually bad healers. I've seen many low damage healers who are overhealing like crazy, afk at critical moments, panicking over any damage and missing half their key abilities.

Yep, generally that is exactly how it is. My cohealer will be over here standing still, casting aoe heals when everyone is topped off and no mechanics are going to be going out, and casting heals if someone loses 1% health PLUS casting a regen if they are WHM.

Uhh...

Most deaths come from DPS/Tanks messing up and eating a one-shot mechanic to the face. Since that's how they design encounters. You're either 100% life or 0% life. Outside of the Tank/Raidbusters that can easily be healed with oGCD's.

GCD healing isn't going to do anything against one-shots.

Yeah. The only time I really actually have to break out a cure 2 or whatever is when everyone in the party is taking so much damage I run out of heals to keep people alive, or I have to solo heal because of dead cohealer. People horribly failing mechanics.
