Regarding Lazy WoW PUGgers Who Don't Use Bandages/Potions/Food

[aierce]

why aren't you helping the dps with doing damage? why aren't you helping the tank absorbing damage? if you don't help them out, why should they help you out

[MrFloodin]

LOLOL som1 needs to go play runescape.

[FeriasDMF]

No offense mate but seriously?

Your a healer. You queue to heal the whole party. Healing just the tank is not only boring but its really easy. There's a reason why you have chain heal. You need to heal the rest of the group. Not only is bringing food, potions and bandages asking a bit much but in combat, in boss fights you can only use potions every minute and bandages every half a minute and some fights have damage that's unaviodable. Admitedly most PuGs fail at dodging abilities but still!?!?

[TheTinyHealer]

I'm sorry, but this is totally wrong. Yes, it's always nice when those DPS bring food, or bandages or health pots but in the end, they are meant to be working on bringing the boss down quickly. True, they should maybe pop a few defensive cooldowns and be a bit more wary with their health pools: maybe move away if they take too much damage and you don't have time to heal them: but seriously. As a healer you have to heal everyone in your group, not just the tank.

healers job to heal end of story.

[TheTNC420]

A majority of the time when I die in a random group it's because the healer is not healing me and other dps during heavy aoe periods where we have no choice but to take the damage and burn the boss down. That one bandage or pot I use is basically gone as I use it. Not my fault.

[WoddeeLives]

In all honesty, DPS should not need to heal that often.

Also. It doesn't matter if they die. Seriously. So yeah, if they aren't self sufficiently healing themselves, fuck them.

[TheJordancee1]

haha cos bandages suck :O Pots ftw :D !

[emarine]

I have a disc priest I have no problem healing dps, your just a lazy Jew.

[MauroR077]

nq2f you're another retard.

[Talavaj]

1. The guy in the video is a shaman, hence not really the endurance healer type.

2. Its a 5 man dungeon, dont expect dozen of off-healers to heal you.

3. For a non-healing class to not have first aid and food is just a plain stupidity.

to choose between suicidal DPS and a tank Id pick to heal the tank and leave the DPS die.

[aHTuXPuCTaT]

you wont ever have been in guild r ? you must change the name with somthing single player....

[lollersham]

Are you serious with this video? ZOMG DPS HAZ NO BANDAGES WOE IS ME...Instances are a joke overall. I find myself running out of stuff to do while healing heroics on my shaman. You are the GROUP healer, your job is to heal the GROUP. It's sad that your mana pool has too big of an e-peen to be bothered to heal the GROUP. To be honest, if I saw a DPS in one of my groups pop a bandage, I'd drop a rip tide and tell them not to bother. L2Heal.

[ValdestaVids]

As serious as any rant really is.

In groups with complete strangers, show some personal responsibility and bring a healing pot or bandage.

Respect your LFG healer and they'll heal runs for you where they don't need any rep, gear or anything.

Funny trick at the end, people who come prepared get rewarded, the unprepared get on my "no sorry, too busy" list when they ask for me to heal something else.

You can go ahead and enable the unprepared folk, if you so choose :)

[mrnibbles243]

Well I got a few things to say. First of all YOUR THE HEALER. You need to heal the group through any situation. Its you job to keep yourself alive. If somebody doesn't bring food/pots/bandages guess what.... you have to heal still. If you just say I'm not going to heal you, I'm just supposed to heal the tank well then your not doing your job, and your just being lazy. The only way that dps is supposed to help you out is by NOT pulling agro which would mean they were taking more damage.

[mrnibbles243]

"Its your job to keep yourself alive" Should have been "Its your job to keep everybody alive"

[ValdestaVids]

In some situations sure, it's the healer's job.

However, at some point it becomes a matter of personal responsibility to take care of oneself in playing as the DPS.

I mean, if you want me to heal for you again. If you have enough healer friends you don't need me, then we're both happy!

[mrnibbles243]

You make a valid point....

The dps are responsible for a few things

not standing in something that would deal massive damage, targeting the marked guys, and not pulling agro on guys by dealing massive bust dps (tanks fault if he pulls agro withought the dps doing something stupid)

other than that its the healers job to keep him alive

[nq2f]

"if the tank dies its the healers fault if the healer dies its the tanks fault if the dps die its there own god dam fault" thats the saying i stick too

[shadowedchakuu]

That saying, though it does hold true to many cases, isn't always true. There are times dps can't help but take damage and can't use a bandage, potion, or stone to help with healing. Though I can understand this guys point and find that its amazing how many people for get stuff like he mentioned thinking 'the healer has got me I don't need it.'

[kunkku90]

i agree with you except if mobs do aoe and dps dies in that

[ValdestaVids]

Definitely I'm not meaning zero heals to the DPS, but once the battle is done and I need to mana up, I'm done healing and you're best to have some food, or a bandage.

And mid fight, if I have to decide between you and the tank getting heals, you'd better have a potion too :)

[Arturcik666]

damn right!
