Got kicked out for being a SCH in the expert roulette. ._.;
Popped into the instance, someone said "SCH. . . ." and a few min later i was kicked. .
We might be the worst healers right now, but can heal expert without any problems at all <.<;;

That's ridiculous.

Also - tanks in Stormblood with level 60 strength accessories .. really?!

They deal quite a bit higher damage with them on lol. I mean, I'm not saying it's optimal for the people healing them, but you know how everyone is when it comes to dealing more damage.

Thanks for this thread, it will keep me healing. Glad to know I am not the only one seeing some out there expectations of us.

I spent an hour in the temple of the fist because not only was the dps abysmal, but the tank would disconnect every 5 minutes, and I couldn't do anything about it because he was friends with the other two.

On top of his frequent disconnects, he'd lag horribly, so basically he was a glorified titan egi, and would lose aggro if dps got to high.

On the expansion day of Stormblood, I logged in on my Scholar only to see my Bane had been butchered and I could no longer use Blizzard II, Miasma II and had half potency worth of Shadow Flares. Then shortly after, I went into a dungeon and noticed my newly spread two dots did 200 damage on some targets. Suffice to say, I nearly did not live to tell you the experience.

I was running Aurum Vale to level my WHM (RIP SCH), and our paladin tank had no concept of healing threat. Every pull he'd tunnel-vision a single mob, while the others would be drawn to my Cure I and Regen threat like moths to a flame. After our fourth wipe I asked him to spam some AoE threat in a friendly way, and he indicated that he shouldn't have to "if everyone focused my target." I tried to explain that my heals generated AOE threat, but he was skeptical. We wiped again and he begrudgingly started slinging around flash; our unending reign of dying magically ceased.

Tanks not using AoE enmity generators seems like a common occurrence in SB. Especially Paladins not using Flash.

The New AoE provoke does not count and to many tanks use it as a pseudo-flash. It is not

Yes tank, please tank Delta 4 with i270 str accessories and no tank stance and each auto attack takes half your health. And please keep doing that when you've got vuln stacks and now you're losing 75% of your health per hit. I mean, it's not like there's any raid damage in that fight I also need to heal, right?

Oh, tanking the floor now? Shame I used up all my MP propping you up earlier, maybe the other healer can rez you....

Not exactly horror but once in temple of fist run, there is this 1 guy who die i think 10 or 11 times total, i keep res him up because i want to know if he going to break his dead record which he indeed lol

I think the guy has no lag problem considering he can combo just fine, but for some reason he react so slow against aoe and boss attack pattern.

On my first Susano EX attempt just now. We wiped the first time because offtank wasn't picking up the orbs. When asked why, he said "I wasn't getting healed by the healers. How can I possibly pick them up if I'm not getting healed? Stupid healers! Why didn't you heals me?!" Me: "because I was dead from soaking the orb you refused to soak..." while my fellow healer was like "I put my fairy on you." T^T And is it really THAT hard to stand behind the boss? Is it? Two RDM's and neither rezzed a single person. Why? I'm a SMN and I rez. Is this hard? They have duelcast. JFC...

This is me, in a nutshell: http://i.imgur.com/MQ6cr0r.jpg

I feel like we should have a separate page for 'healer horror stories: RDM addition.' "Yes, go ahead and leap onto the boss when the tank hasn't emnity yet. That's a good plan."
