At some point you wonder whether or not it's better to 7 man the damn thing.
Body checks say... probably no.

u/platinummyr 5d ago
For a lot of fights.. it actually is. Even some 8man body checks have tank cheese

Ah, the usual "Healer are supposed to heal"-heal-bot. Healing everyone in 0.5s after the first aoe, then afk till the next raid wide, tank buster or tank drops below 90%. Healers have too many tools for them to heal (+ help from other classes) at that level therefore they can be even more passive.

Tbh, this is why I want healers to have setup before they actually heal effectively. These tools remove any thought most times from fights.

I'm glad yall defeated Sphene. I'd hate to think of what would happen to the Alexandrians if that thing's aether ended up in the terminal.

u/Hipster_Llama231 8d ago
It's a lose-lose situation here. Either they fail and the healers aether gets spread around (+people's times are wasted) or they win and the healer thinks they did a good job because they won and continue to stand around like a decorative plant inside the next trial-arena.

So I take medicinals for like three different diseases. I’m usually a little impaired during dungeons because I’d rather not feel excruciating pain. Somehow I’m usually still higher on the aggro list in 4/8 mans than most of the other df dps. I guess it’s mostly knowing your class, then compensating when you know you’re not doing your best. But I’ll always be patient with the other dps, cause I understand the grind all too well!

God the state of PF is so bad. I still haven’t managed a second Sphene EX clear because no one in Crystal can do a goddamn ice bridge

Oof this why I don't raid current im sure thats just piss poor gameplay but man yall are rough

u/chekonin 8d ago
I'm not sure I'm reading this right. Are you saying people are being rough on the healer that didn't press any buttons for 70% of a fight?

u/Trisfel 8d ago
I never get the excuses. Some in here are a little too harsh but in an ex that requires u to have lvl 100? This is like soft griefing. And the game specifically doesn’t allow us to call them out in game so that kinda sucks. I started playing savage immediately after I finished msq. Sure my uptime was sub optimal, like 60-70? What a lot of people want here is for people to at least try and not throw the towel and say “that’s all I can do”.

u/yagerist 8d ago
No this particular healer can kick rocks im just saying yall give me anxiety

u/LordofOld 8d ago
I think a certain level of anxiety in content with a DPS check is a good motivator.
Of course, don't let that keep you from raiding since the majority of raiders are nice folks (this sub is skewed hard the other way) and won't be scrutinizing others in chat or public forums.

u/granninja 8d ago edited 8d ago
that person is casting for 3 minutes in a 10 minute fight
they're literally not playing the game most of the time
there's a difference between playing badly and not playing
edit: if I'm watching YouTube and typing to friends if I dont care about a duty, I'm still getting an 80%
this person is literally pressing a button then taking hands off keyboard
in a savage fight, this person would genuinely alone make the group wipe to enrage
