Post Your Healing Horror Stories.

Leveling AST in Halatali. When we got to the Thunderclap Guivre, everyone stood in the electrified water the whole time. I don't know what I did to make them hate me so much in the little time we had together.

They were probably mad that you weren't level sync'd to 30. They wanted some card buffs and Halatali was being a cardblock.

Well yeah, that was the point in leaving the keyboard. To carry his ass to the boss, since he didn't feel like healing through an entire dungeon. >_>

T_T not cool if it was on purpose. That's a d!ck move. I'm not new but if we were new players, that would of been a mess. At that level half my moves are gone from the lvl sync

Funny thing is, that's actually doable on SCH on low level stuff. Just put yourself on autofollow of some other group member, and let fairy heal. And no, I wouldn't do this in DF group out of respect but I did it couple times when running with friends and I wanted to go grab a coffee. Not like I was away more than couple groups but when I said "back" it got good laughs

Then he dropped the bomb : "good DRK don't use CD" followed shortly by "I saw lot of DRK not using CD". I didn't know how to respond but the SMN just dropped "you're a bad tank then".
He then started to get all pissy angry
We just answered "okay", then the SMN summoned Titan-Egi and we kicked him.

Sounds like one hell of a Dark Knight.

So I queued for Aurum Vale because as much as I hate this place, the xp is nice. The tank was a little undergeared for the dungeon but healing her was not difficult. The BLM was new to the area, so I expected some mistakes. The problem with this group however made itself apparent on the first wipe. The GOT DAMN MONK KEPT AGGROING THE WANDERERS. Fine then, I can keep us through this mess. Until he starts pulling aggro, and THEN we wipe(this is all after holys and such). Three wipes. And he's like "why am Im being pulled into the mobs?" I silently say "Why are you not paying attention to your surroundings?"

OK we get to the first boss. I tell the BLM to eat fruit at 2 stacks. She gets up to 3 for but managed to get to the fruit. THE PROBLEM HERE IS THE MONK HAS FIVE STACKS. So guess what? I'm dumping cure IIs on HIM. But it is not enough, and he drops, the BLM shortly after.

So now I need to work in some MP to raise them both. I start with the monk first. He does not wise up and keeps building stacks. We wiped because I didn't have enough MP and the boss was 50% HP...

So he decides to play the "It's the healer's fault" game and says "I've had healers keep me alive with 3/4 stacks and not use much MP.." Let that sink in for a second.

I know that's bullshit but he just wouldn't shut up after that. Ya ok, raise is 700+ mp at 49. I blew through 1400+mp and I did not have shroud of saints ready because healing Mister 5 stacks hogged everything. Final attempt, this guy is riding 3 stacks. The odd thing is, instead of eating the fruit, he is running back and forth from it. At this point I feel trolled and I'm going to let him die. He then runs towards me(I'm not freaking healing him.. he's been trouble for this group since the very start) and dies. So now he's like "do you have regen". Don't see you me using it on the tank? I'm just wasting MORE MP placing regen on you PLUS Cures, since the stack damage is too much for regen. Tank left first, and I left but after I gave the monk a piece of my mind.

I run AV often, this was the first time I could not get past the first boss. This is also the first time I've had to be verbal with anyone in DF on a negative level IN A LONG TIME. And is it a coincidence that the last time was also in AV?? I was BLM though..

Edit: Let me just say I consider myself to be a good healer, but not good enough to carry bad players. I don't want to be, and I never will be.

[Nekotee]

I do fear the aurum val for that kind of player...
I dont care about the second boss and his insane big club he scared me at first but not anymore
I dont care about tank with death wish to skip monstres...

I do fear bad player who forgot the very basic mecanics !!!

[Arkenne]

THE PROBLEM HERE IS THE MONK HAS FIVE STACKS.

For MP efficiency... just stop the heals on whoever gets 4 stacks :/
You'll spend less mp by ressing them on a spare moment than healbombing... that'll give a greater chance of success...

Sounds like a painful moment, tho :/

AV tale sounds horrible, I feel for you

My own recent endeavor including a company of a monk. Went to ex roulette to get eso before chaos migration on Sunday. We start by pulling the first island, like always. And I see that everything is dying very slowly even with me dpsing hard. I had to use shroud even to keep tank alive on a first pull because of oom. Dps are above mentioned monk and a summoner. Summoner had a low ilvl and monk...just didn't do any rotations. It was a struggle never seen before in NR. 40 minutes instead of 20 without a single wipe I mind you! It was just that bad. I ended up a top dps as a whm. I stoicly struggled through this and didn't say a word to the monk who was apparently bashing her keyboard randomly. Now I think I shouldve said something, maybe this person was just unaware of the class, but then, if they don't bother researching then it's their choice I guess.

I had a monk (yes, another monk) like this in Aurum Vale when me and my SCH friend (queued as SMN) were heping our tank friend level.
The monk was so obviously trolling that we decided to play along: 3 brazilian players, talking in portuguese on party chat, messing up everything we could with extra big pulls and playing ping-pong aggro with him. He left before the first boss, cursing us.
