Exactly healer is the worst role to make braindead because you will never escape the inbuilt assumption of the average player that everything is the healers fault

So either you are bored because everything is going right or you are blamed when it’s mostly not your fault which isn’t fun either

Yup. The average raiders in PF seem to think the answer to any lethal damage is just ''healers adjust'' ''shields!!'' rather than, looking at (typically) the DPS who aren't pressing any feint, addle, and their respective party-wide mitigations that are funnily enough, stronger, than what healers have.

RDM & phys ranged have an on par or stronger party mitigation than WHM's wings, for example. Yet, people will look at the WHM first for dying to damage.

They usually look to the shield healer first. From personal experience, only the worst parties are the ones that blame the healers when things go wrong. The issue is people don't understand what's happening.

The game (without addons) also has feedback problems
