After 2-3 Fire II's I get 3+ mobs on me since the tank 'forgot' to keep flashing and if I don't immediately start healing myself I will die. The healer is usually busy tab + aeroing everything and won't get a cure off before I'm dead. Unless I personally know you're a good healer I'm gonna top myself off whenever I can.
Yeah, I can understand completely why you and other non-healing mages keep yourself healed. When I am playing healer I usually try not to say anything and enjoy other ppl doing my job ;P It's just really irritating for people like me who know how it's done it take away from my gameplay. There are a lot of bad healers out there sadly, so I can understand.
