I'm bored when I heal because I need more complex DPS rotations

I dont think it's allowed to link logs and "badtalk" players on forums.
(player names can be seen on the logs)


You may not have notice this but, the vul % changes based on boss's ability : the ability which i died on had 13% not 25% ( I had 1 stack).
Now you know.

It's not bad talk, it's clarification on a common sentiment which I believe is demonstrably incorrect, thus here we are.

I'm not calling you (or anyone else for that matter) out for being bad or such, I'm simply highlighting what's what and the reality behind what I suspect drives a very significant percentage of these kind of accusations against healers. So many people jump to instantly saying 'You never healed me!' as a defence mechanism rather than looking back and analysing what actually happened and seeing if there is a way to prevent it in the future which is not only a great way to improve as a player, but it's a wildly valuable life skill as well. Blame shouldn't be a central part of this, if there's a way to resolve an potential issue, why not make that adjustment?

It could absolutely be argued that those healers could have done more to save you, just as you could have done more to save yourself. But it's a 24 man, if you're not try harding yourself, it's not really fair to expect others to go above and beyond either. That's fair right?

And ya, Bole (10/10 appropriate name for the topic btw ) has the raid mitigation side covered, so no need for me to expand on that.

So yeah in closing, it's less of a trend of healers not healing and more a trend of people being quick to jump the gun and blame the healer even if it wasn't actually the healer's fault as demonstrated by your example. I've seen it in literal world prog back in FCOB, I've seen it in DF but in an even more comical situation.. We've all been there.

The alliance queue really needs a modern shakeup, the queues should backfill so you aren’t getting 5 withdraws in a row with 23/24 saying yes then starting again (especially on the rarer raids where it’s really common that if someone withdraws the roulette will then change tact and dump off the players into something else making you wait even longer)

Absolutely. Even on a busy server at decent hours, getting dumped out of the queue occasionally causes pretty big delays, it sucks if it happens repeatedly.
