Returning healer

[rawker]

Thanks for the responses. I do realize I could have just stayed silent and carried on and usually I would do just that, but I've never been told how to do my job before so brazenly and by someone who doesn't even seem to know what they themselves are doing. I feel bad for leaving it up to another healer to finish that run but at that point I felt like I was healing in WoW or something and just had to leave. Just going to chalk it up to an isolated and rare incident and carry on as normal; though it was very shocking it being my first experience after coming back to the game and in leveling roulette of all things?

If I am playing healer and the tank is stubborn, I will either do 2 things:

1. Abandon. I have the privilege of instant queues. I will grab it. The stress fighting with a toxic player is just not worth it. Though I will apologize with the DPS players before leaving.
2. Vote kick the toxic player, if I am the party leader, especially on your situation. DPS queues are already punishment enough. There are plenty more tanks out there who will do better.

The Dunning-Kruger effect occurs when a person's lack of knowledge and skill in a certain area causes them to overestimate their own competence. By contrast, this effect also drives those who excel in a given area to think the task is simple for everyone, leading them to underestimate their abilities.

This reminds me of way back when Shadowbringers was just a few months in. Was running Dohn Mehg on random and got a group that apparently queued together. The tank blatantly refused to turn on tank stance, and both him and his buddies got mad when I refused to move any further until he did. They demanded I leave the dungeon since it was still within time that they couldn't kick, and I refused that as well. I did warn them that I was screenshoting everything they said and was reporting it if they didn't clean up their act. They finally got the kick vote available and kicked me. Needless to say, I reported.

Got to love groups out there trying to turn their healer into the tank.

Wow thats pretty moronic of them. I mean all the tank had to do was press one button and problem solved, the lengths people go to be complicated astounds me sometimes.
