What's the Healer rush?

[Arkdra]

While big pulls are efficient it's not completely about that or time. It is much more fun to wipe twice in a row attempting a big pull than to not do any big pulls at all. Good experience for everyone as well.

Exactly. Wipes aren't usually a point of frustration, they're usually pretty funny. I would much rather be in a dungeon with a healer and tank trying to get a handle on doing big pulls and dying in the process than be stuck in a dungeon with a single pull tank and an honest healer. The former are trying, the latter are worse than trust npc's, even if we nobody dies. It's as simple as that.

Why is everyone so scared of dying in a game? Fucking press w until you die or the game forces you to stop, solve problems when they actually become a problem don't make problems up in your head.

I can't speak for the world.. but when I see people die people leave sometimes. And it just feels bad honestly. Now noted it's rare people get pissed but I've seen it happen a few times. So I can understand people wanting to play it safe.

Because most of us are over gear now and pulling ahead of tank without prior discussion is a terrible habit

Tank set the pace, if anyone feel the pull is too small or slow. They should talk to the tank

95% chance the people leaving were the problem to begin with. If I had a nickel for every time someone threw a fit in a chat and then left, only for us to replace them and proceed to have no further issues clearing the content, I would have approximately $6.35.

"go go go" guy it's always a healer.

Most of the time this is the healers' way of telling the tank that they are ok with big pulls.
They either run ahead of the tank jumping up and down to the next pack (not necessary pulling) or type something in chat like "go go go", "pull everything", "big pulls please", etc..

So why is it with healers you're in such a god damn rush?

I highly recommend you to level a healer to understand them better. Healers after a certain level unlock abilities/spells that make healing big pulls a joke. If the tank is not doing big pulls, healers have almost nothing to do. It is more fun for most healers when the tank does big pulls. It gives them something to do.

If you think playing healer in dungeon is boring then don't play healer

I mean yeah it is easier to not play it. Just click the tank, set on follow and go do the dishes while the fairy heals. There's no point in causing a fuss when you can just match your effort to the lowest denominator and let the party have it their way. If that sounds like a slow run then the tank should pull bigger.

Back in Heavensward, which is when I joined the game, big pulls weren't something I was used to doing since I was new. I'd say the tank was "making me work for it" when they did them, because I actually had to put in some effort to keep them alive compared to small pulls

Its because of how the game is designed. Everyone has tools for big pulls, and no one can use all of their tools if you pull small because it will be a waste. As a tank you need to look at your team and judge what your team can handle as a whole. Communicate you are new and then trust your healer because they are also judging what you can handle too and whether they can heal you through it.
