Why are healers the most insufferable people to be around with no matter what game you play? What is it about the healer class that gives these people such a high sense of entitlement?
>>
>>379191405

Because their role is always in a high demand and your choice usually amounts to either put up with the abuse or one more hour to complete the party
>>
They're usually the liason between the filthy dps and the glorious tank. After even a minute of talking to the dumpster that is dps you'd be a little fed up too.

are we playing same games?
i have been playing MMOs for years and never met that kind of healers and i play tanks or tanky classes exclusively. There are shitters and and good players, but never met one that expected a reward cause he/she is a healer.

It's the one class with total control over whether people live or die, so of course they get retarded god complexes and become shitty people.

Not really true, the whole job is just a balance between tank and healer. Sometimes a good tank can save the day when the healer is being a complete retard.

>>379191405
If all you had to do was heal, it wouldn't be a problem.
The issue is that by being the healer / supporter in every fucking game imaginable you also end up becoming the team's babysitter except instead of dealing with a bunch of toddlers who shit themselves and need feeding every now and again you have a collection of 13-30 year old functionally retarded dipshits who think they can proceed to be even dumber than usual because you'll be able to clean up every shitbomb they decide to fuck up on.
You need to micromanage every little shit because they're fucking dumb cunts who are completely incapable of avoiding even the most telegraphed damage in existence.
Also literally everything is your fault, no matter how much it isn't.
Some dumb shit runs half a mile away from the rest of the group and dies repeatedly to easily avoidable damage? That's your fault.
Your team loses because they're incapable of doing anything? It's automatically your fault no matter what it is.

Every so often being the healer is an absolutely fine and even rewarding job when you're with a group of actually competent people, otherwise you're the designated baby sitter and trash can for everyone to blame anything that goes wrong on.
>>
>>379193947
That's your fault for not adjusting.

It's like clockwork.
>>
in a good party the healer job is the easiest role ever, sometimes you can even go afk and no one would notice since they arent taking damage (depends on game mechanics)

thing is: good parties are rare
usually every party is filled with shitters, and they all blame eachother for their own failures
shitty dps blame healers when they die, blame tank if they died while still getting healed
shitty healers will blame dps for not killing stuff/saving their asses, and blame tank for not "holding the aggro" when they fail to avoid taking damage themselves
shitty tanks will blame healers for every single damage they take and blame the dps for not killing things fast enough

the thing with healers is that in most games its a class that require less skill/knowledge/action to play
so it end up attracting a greater deal of shitty players to it

>>379191405
Because much like real life doctors, you slowly lose your humanity the longer you try to help people. Human stupidity knows no bounds.
>>
I can play all roles since I'm not a shitter and have no life.

Healers talk the least since their job is the most complicated.
DPS stand in the fire and make the healer's job unnecessarily harder to impossible. We notice every mistake.
Tanking is easy. If you can get aggro on everything, you have tons of ways to not die, including literally just walking away to take zero damage.
>>
>>379191728
This.

Mind you, most people are not insufferable, arrogant assholes. Most people are not even insufferable, arrogant assholes all the time. However, healers are usually in the highest demand (party will fall apart without one, with few exceptions) and the least number of people willing to play one. As such, they've learned that they can easily find a group if they need to, and so don't need to put up with any bullshit.

If you are a nice, consider, non-assholic person, then things really shouldn't be a problem. But if you are a dick, an idiot, or insist on ERPing your fantasy about shoving a dick down some dude's throat, then they're going to drop you like a hot potato and go find someone else to work with.

I find that tanks tend to work well with healers. After all, they stay alive thinks to healers, and so they learn to appreciate someone being decent at their job. DPS seems to have the worst attitudes, although this is likely because all the kids love playing as backstabby rogues and refuse to play anything else.
>>
>>379192735
that and when shit goes wrong guess who they blame 9 times out of ten? That makes most healers very try hard.

Tanking is the easiest role by far. You play as a DPS. No obligation to maximise your damage. Just spam your buttons and AoE as much as possible. The only time your role obligations matter is when you need to use an ability to not die or taunt off another tank.
>>
>>379191405
That better be a Healer (male).
>>
>>379196758
Jimmy DPS is standing in the fire and is about to die to his own stupidity because he's tunneling his rotation.
The tank is taking heavy damage since you're pulling quickly or fighting a boss.
You have to move to avoid a mechanic or you'll take heavy damage (wasting future healing) or outright die.

What do you do?

No other role has to make this kind of decision - you can play entirely selfishly at all times.
>>
Christ, I'm getting flashbacks to my Priest in WoW

Healers are responsible for compensating for retarded dps who aren't geared appropriately or stand in the fire. And when the group wipes the healer is blamed.

You end up becoming remarkably forgiving towards the idiocy of the tank/dps or jaded as fuck
>>
Most games where you have healers the players play as girls, and people who play as girls in games are fucking trash. The worst people. If you could play a cute healer boy in many games, I'm sure you'd get better quality healers.

>>379198724
DPS are the most entitled because they think if they press their damage button then they completed their part of the deal and if there are any fuck ups at all its everyone elses fault.
Tanks are probably the most stuck up because of how they're the least played role and you're privileged for them to finally que up in dungeon / duty finder.

Never had any issues with healers. And often time I just play support myself, and try to be as polite as it allows. I switch between all roles, generally Ex!Support>Support>Nuke>DPS=Healin>Tank preference wise, and can honestly say in all possible experiences the DPS role is populated by the largest amount of faggot, cunts and entitled retards.
And it becomes EXPONENTIALLY worse in any game that includes thieves or ninjas; You'd think it's a cliche to call those tryhard, yet somehow every dumb animu shitlord ensures to fill the role.

tanks easily, it's a boring role so they think they are gods for fulfilling the most braindead job in the game due to the rarity of people wanting to be a tank

Healers, buffers, and tanks [should] know how the game works. DDs don't.
>>
>>379197000
still its not complicated game-mechanic-wise

all they do is stand still and throw a couple of heals/buffs, sometimes not even that, depending on the game

if Jimmy is being a retarded standing in the fire, get rid of Jimmy and find a non-retarded dps
Jimmy being an idiot doesnt give free pass for healers to act like they are special

>in a good party the healer job is the easiest role ever, sometimes you can even go afk

I remember one story that was pretty weird. In FFXIV if you play Scholar you get a fairy pet that heals the party just like you do. On the lower level dungeons the best thing to do is to play like you are a DPS because the fairy will heal enough for the party to continue.

I was in a party that was doing really good once and suddenly got this massive headache and couldn't even look at the screen. I relayed to the party and asked if they would rather I leave so they can get another healer or if they are fine if I just /follow one of the members while my fairy auto heals. They were pretty good sports about it so I left for 15 minutes of the dungeon just to take a pill and lie down. I guess part of the reason they were so nice is because they didn't want to wait for another healer, but it was still the most chill group I ever randomed with.
>>
>>379200027
in most situations yeah, a healer is almost like a leecher
but holy fuck when shit hits the fan man
i'm this guy>>379199828
i tried to be a healer once in a sticky situation and i have to say it's the class that takes the most pressure in the game in some cases, since you have to decide who to keep alive, who to heal quickly, who's disposable, etc. and to make these decisions under 2 seconds or less, which spell with high cd to burn and on who, if it's better to cast a 2sec low mana heal or 1sec high mana, etc.

but i'm just inexperienced as a healer, maybe that's why i find the above scenario difficult
i don't want to be a healer anyway, so i don't care much about it, i hate to stick my eyeballs on the group's hp bar forever

In the years I been playing this game I been fortunate to have not experienced the bad tank, a few rookie ones but we all started somewhere.

As for healers, I had one or two bad ones. One that had the personality of a douch healer. Dude got into hissy fit and started pulling as many groups as possible to wipe the party. What a shame, the other two players had the new scrub and I try give them a good run every time.

Also, I lust after cocks so many that has something to do with it.
>>
Healers and dps are bitches. As a tank I got complained at that I'm going to fast and pull to much, even though no one never even came close to dying. When I rolled a healer, not only did I keep up but I topped the healing meters with the least amount of over healing. Most healers are just garbage. I only ever met one person in 5 years who played a healer that agreed with me and we became friends and ended up trying to duo a bunch of dungeons when we were bored.

DPS think they're entitled to every single piece of gear that drops. Even when it's not that big of an upgrade for them and would significantly boost someone else.

I think you are either exaggerating or playing with bad players or not building understanding with your group. When I heal I make it none that everyone should try not to get hit and have potions on them.
>>
>>379201284
i've played all three roles pretty extensively and it's really not that hard man. Yeah there are definitely more decisions to make and it's probably the most 'engaging' role in the gane, but you basically prioritize and if you're clearing content, the damage input will eventually become routine besides the odd fuck-ups that people will have.

not to mention if no one is taking damage you can just sit on your ass and use a few damage spells. DPS constantly have to find ways to maximize their output while dealing with mechanics and movement.

Each one has its own things to it, kinda just a shame some folks let the game get to their head.

Instead of complaining that the people in the group are not satisfactory to you why don't you guys just get a dedicated list of friends to play with than you can be as selective with the group as you want. It's not like you don't spend countless hours in these games and meet literally hundreds of people.

Healers are never at fault, if they die, they weren't being protected. If the team fails they didn't do enough DPS. If others die, the tank didn't protect them. If the tank dies, they were reckless.

So from my expiernce as all 3 roles here is how it goes.

DPS hate when tank pulls too lil so dps bitches at tank
Tank tries to pull lots but he has to adjust to the healer since it's impossible to tell how good your healer is until you do a near death pull at which point the healer will probably bitch at you for actually making them work and not just spam 1 heal every 2 minutes
Then healer is either wanting to be the laziest fuck in the world or a GOOD healer will tell the tank yeah go pull the entire dungeon I got you bro.


I played DISC priest in wow and that was the most fun time I had as a healer, ff14 healing is boring.
As a paladin in ff14 I can pull entire dungeons with 0 chance of death and healers still fuck up.

DPS just don't matter and more often than not are always lazy mode who aren't mix maxing dps but will still bitch at other roles for not doing their top 1%.

If something goes south most of the time its easy to spot who fucked up if the party was functional before hand, so if you didn't fuck up you won't get shit for it.

You also get the same waiting times as Healer or less, and usually get designated party leader and usually have a easier time doing Solo content then a Healer.

While i agree that it is the easiest, and especially sicne the rotations for Tanks tend to be brainless, i gonna say it is a bit more complex then "Just DPS" since the best Mitigation have long cooldowns so it is all about knowing the dungeons and fight and when to pop em so the are able to be popped again when needed and that also means anticipating how fast the DPS dps, especially when you put positioning into play, another important factor if you are PUGging is the ability to read threat and react accordingly and keep track of where all your party members are so you can immediately throw a voke if they fuck up and pull a add or disposition so one spawns on them and that kind of shit, with minimal position leaving/turning (because that fucks up the other DPS with position heavy rotations).

There is also the point you need to gauge how focused the healer is and how fast the DPS is so you don't over extend with HUEG PULLS.

Just like Healer it is very reactive role and good tank knows where all his teammates are at any given time to be able to jump in and bail them out and performance, hence why it tends to be "Designated Leader" you are expected to be able to gauge the performance of everyone else, Meanwhile the average DPS generally don't give fuck about the Tank and Healer unless they get hit.

So is anyone elses birthday an invalid date according to square enix?


Born on dec 31st 1993 and I can't use it to make an account since square enix says its invalid. Apparently that day just doesn't exist according to japanland. I bumped it up to 83 so its easy to remember and that day works though. What is the logic here?

I can't wait for the stormblood gloriousness of 4 paladins just rotating their clemecies and never needing a healer again.

Playing a healer is usually either boring as fuck or stressful as fuck. When the tank is well geared you only need to press a button maybe every few seconds. When the tank is undergeared and/or bad it's a nightmare and you get blamed for every wipe.
I used to play healers and never acted like a cunt but I can kinda understand why some do. These days if I get the need to play an mmo I just stick to tank or dps.

That, and they are usually the job with least players, so it's exponentially more difficult to find healers, which ends on them having complete control of the group under the threat of "Comply or go back to groupfinding for half an hour"

For ff14 its incorrect. Healsluts are everywhere compared to tanks that are far more lacking in numbers.

Queue times dps 15 mins
healer 10 mins
tank instant

This makes me miss XI.
That game forced you to party and I used to have time back then. It was rather nice to log on around the same time and get a whisper from an elvaan thief, same thing everytime "Hey, Anon, wanna party again? :)"

It was like having friends. We never formed a link, or even added each other as friends but it was always the same group of people doing dungeons and leveling. We have chats and just enjoyed the game together. Memories.

Tanks and healers are always bros. Always.

Dps classes are whiny retards who prefer dying to AoE over doing 1 less dps.

No idea really, healers are in demand more than dps.
They are still pretty much disposable to a tank though.

I guess it is just that they are big fish in a small pond.

Why do you play classbased teambased online games with strangers though?

I miss 9Dragons, but I know it's not good. Any memey open-beta/recently released MMOs to waste my time with?
>>
>>379211295

I don't get people in MMOs, playing tanks in most games you are the most aware of positioning and mechanics.
Then as soon as you give someone advice in the nicest way possible after they cause a wipe of get themselves killed they go fucking berserk.
>>
>>379211870
Usually someone else will tell them (or me) what we did wrong, but if no-one says anything after the second wipe I'll say something. I always think that they might just have made a mistake and aren't just ignorant of what they needed to do.

Yes, I don't like conflict

Play a game who's player base is average over 30 years old and you won't run into problems like this.

>give a quick explanation of a fight while running back without naming anyone if someone was obviously confused and caused a wipe
