Why do people bother dodging aoe during trash pulls?

[MPK]

You trust pug healers? lmao

You don't need to. They won't even have to cast a single ogcd heal.

Very educational.

They do no damage. Just stand still and spam your aoe combos

Worst case scenario healer can adjust

It’s good practice to learn to not stand in bad for the tough fights.

I'd like to see more one shots if you don't get out of the telegraph, personally.

Same but in dungeons and in like 99% of normal content you can basically just blindly eat all the aoes and not give a damn. I wish there was a savage dungeon mode.

Literally the first lesson in the hall of the novice is "don't stand in AOEs"

We can't complain that players aren't doing what they're taught in there while also complaining that they are.

Well that's an advice from a novice.

Next : they need to learn without learning.
It's funny when i see ppl say "go on training if you want to try thing" then " dude it's training, go on normal to trying thing " and After i saw this thread.

What are players supposed to do ??? XD

I'm going to say your not doing very big trash pulls..

I mean your not wrong 1 aoe maybe even 2 doesn't always hurt that badly. It's nothing that dps popping bloodbath, shadeshift or something similar can't keep on top of.

But if your group is making big pulls that 1 or 2 aoes easily becomes 6 or 8 and you will get wrecked if ypur caught in the middle of all of them.

Besides, if the healer were any good they wouldn't be that busy with the tank, they would be spamming their aoe skills too and be using their OGCDs only to heal the tank (this includes raid wide ogcd heals such as assize, star, whispering dawn, and that fey blessing).

BS! That's often more dependent on the tank being good than the healer.

That tank that only pops vengeance when he's down to 11k hp if he even uses cooldowns at all. Too late now mate. What good is popping a cooldown now when the damage your taking is a fraction of what it was 20 seconds ago because 3/4 of the pull has been killed...

I can run an expert dungeon and rarely if ever use a gcd on a heal. I can run an expert dungeon and find myself spamming the hell out of psychic just because the tank is super squishy. And eating every resource I have.
