    Healer, nice healing

    You hear this so much. Well, at least I do.

    Tank overpulls, and then suddenly it is "healer, nice healing"

    It is nice to hear, but it also made me realize that this is more "tank, bad pulling".

    If a healer is at their wit's end to get you through a mighty pull, then surely it means that the tank has overpulled, right?

    I can heal through most overpulls, assuming they are manageable in normal circumstances. I fluff every so often, but it happens to the best of us.

    But, surely by commending healers for getting through big pulls, it is doing a disservice to the tanks who, in the future, believe that the way they are pulling can work with lesser/new healers.

    Yet. We aren't allowed to say that it was a bad pull, because of the risk of being reported. So us healers can do nothing but say "thanks", and then wait for the inevitable fluff-up with the next healer who can't heal through those mighty pulls and gets ganged up on.

    When you deal with human beings, never count on logic or consistency.

    Fluid like water. Smooth like silk. Pepperoni like pizza.

    There's not really anywhere you can overpull except Mt. Gulg. Every other dungeon the max pull is easily doable. You don't need spectacular gear to do them either, just people knowing how their cooldowns work.

    I may not comment on the healing but I will usually give healers the comm whenever I'm doing roulettes.
