Healers need an overhaul

[MintnHoney]

That's the thing, I don't mind if I'm the only healer in the group and have to do all the healing. Like, if my boss come to me and say "you're going solo on this project, get it done", I wouldn't mind at all. But imagine they tell "you and MintnHoney will be co-operate on this project" ... and I end up have to do it all myself ... I hope you don't need me to explain why I (or anyone) would have problem with it?

That would depend on a number of factors, wouldn't it?
For example, you're thinking to yourself "damn, that MintnHoney, they never heal, they just keep doing whatever they're doing. They're wasting everyone's time being a healer if they didn't want to heal, they should have just queued as a DPS instead since they don't respect MY healer role."
Now from my perspective: I have DPSManiac, the lvl 90 BRD, taking 1000 damage out of their possible (let's say) 39,000 along with 5 out of 6 of the non-healer party memebers, and, before I can even consider if they're about to eat a raidwide or not, you've already cast Horoscope > Asp. Helios > Asp. Benefic > Celestial Opposition, and the BRD is "saved" thanks to your heroic gesture of casting a bunch of spells unnecessarily.
At this point, I don't see the need to cast my spells or use my OGCDs, because that would just be a waste of actions and massively unnecessary overhealing. So I don't, and, instead, turn my attention to things that could use it.

So, when "our boss" comes up to ask what happened, and you point at me and say "MintnHoney never healed, they made me do all the healing and they were being a meanie weenie DPS focused meanie-face. " I'll look at them and say "why did you think putting two people with the exact same, overperforming function into the same project, that only really required maybe half of our individual effective output in the first place, would have little-to-no overlap with their abilities and, consequentially, would lead to one or both of us either fighting for relevance or one of us sidelining ourselves while the other performs our functions as intended?"


And when they say "you should have said something to each other and split the duties 50/50" neither of us would likely have anything to say about that.

Well, at the very least I can admit you're far better than me at making fun of people talking to you.

Your hair color was the main inspiration, but I admit, sometimes I'm just a visionary who enjoys long walks on the beach at night and is kind to animals. It's just one hat of many.
