Healer, nice healing

[PirateRyanG]

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.

I have definitely seen a lot of various passive-aggressive criticism towards myself, or other healers. It does happen. The healer will often have all the blame laid on them, even if the tank definitely is the one at fault, and I can tell you I know when it's the tank at fault and not me.

Ryan why. Why Ryan.

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.

The only pull in there that's even dangerous is the gigantic one at the end, but that's what invulns are for. Pretty much every tank that isn't DRK is fully capable of keeping itself alive through the pull without heals.
