For those who complain when HP drops below 50%, our healing toolkit is literally designed in a way that it rewards us for letting people get that low. Excogitation, Essential Dignity and Benediction all favour people whose HP has dropped.

Complain if they healer can't keep people alive, then you know their balance is wrong - or try to find out why they're struggling and help address it because we all benefit from an attitude of helping rather than one of scolding. If nobody dies, then they're doing a good job?

I've actually developed a bit of a bias against ranged because of it, i feel like alot of people flock to the role thinking they can have less responsibility because they have no positionals or cast times. And for some reason they think they don't need to position themselves properly for heals and use their mitigation to help out the healers.

I even had a mch static member in E3s, who sat in melee spot because we had 3 ranged, and forced our poor BLM to do all the moving for black smokers, no joke.
And of course he complained in E4S because he kept dying due to not being topped off after he stood away from my earthly stars and our sch soils.

It got so bad that i just stopped bothering to beg him to move in and just started rescuing him lol
I feel this. I plan my Earthly Stars with the intention of letting people's health drop. It's the strongest AoE heal in the game, I'm going to want to see some health drop. It's more frustrating when it's the tank lol. Heal bubbles are put down for a purpose (as are DPS ones too). Given Earthly Star deals damage I need to put it down rather than reserve it and you can't always time it for when you really need it but you can let people's health drop so the heal aspect is not wasted.

I play a ranged job for DPS, but try stay within AoE heal range. But then as a healer, I know the rage lol.
