With all the mitigation, healing and self sustain they got nowadays, I'm sorry but if a tank dies it's all on themself.
I can admit a tank dying from lack of healing if it's a DRK and it's only if DPS are bad on top of that, that's all.
Healer? What do you even need one for?
Check out the creation dates for a lot of these accounts. Most of them that are "striking" are 2-4 years old, many are less than that. Now you go to the actual game and the healers letting people die are the ones trying to dps, not focusing mechanics, not healing at all, bad gear, sprout, etc.
Healer strike is ridiculously foolish and accomplishes nothing
Forum account creation date =/= date of play, theyre sadly seperate. I, for example, have been playing since around HW on and off, and didnt have much of a strong desire to engage with the forms until about recently, mostly because i saw this thread and decided to interact with it because i agree with the points here.Check out the creation dates for a lot of these accounts.

I'm also someone who has historically played a healer in many games, started as a healer in this one and over time have found the general focus on babying healers as if they are incapable of healing and handling mechanics at the same time infuriating. I fully support this strike and think its already been successful in many regards. There's no way the dev team is not aware of current healer frustrations and that's a step in the right direction. Only time will tell if meaningful changes will be implemented.

As a tank main... How are you dying? Even as DRK if you do it right, especially with the new Shadowed Vigil, you can stay alive for an entire pull without a healer.
If you're dying, you're doing it intentionally. Blaming the healers for it won't fix bad gameplay.
Filled to the brim with salt, vinegar, and unpopular opinions.
Nobody told me Fantasias were addictive, now I have to go to rehab.
I don't get how he is dying and blaming the healer. I have to TRY to die on trash pulls lol.

This interview does not make you healerstrike peeps look good at all. https://youtu.be/4_NsNMEAdPo?si=_OulG9xLb7GaYjFa as someone who likes to heal on the side having mechanics with every boss or at least most should have engaging moments with healers.
