FFXIV Random Complaint Thread II: DPS can't count to potato

[DeadlyWaltz]

wtb healers that don't throw a fucking fit because I'm in str accessories and dps stance.

WTB Tank that doesn't wear all STR gear and then pulls everything in the zone, dies and then blames the healer. Maybe if you had some VIT it wouldn't have happened. Just saying.

Are you the healer in question? If not, how would you know if he died or the size of the pulls?

Been healing since 2.0 Beta. Ran into many tanks who like to run full STR gear, pull all the mobs in the area and then bitch when they die or rage quit. Well gee, if you wanted to do big pulls ya should've put on some VIT gear. Then maybe your ass wouldn't be eating dirt. It didn't help when DRKs were introduced. DRKs in full STR right side annoys the ever loving shit out of me. Makes me waste more MP since they can't take a hit.

He'll have enough taints to clean later anyway.

This joke only makes sense if you have done the 50+ WHM ability quests. Good times.

I was a healer from beta until the period after first coil release. I never really checked peoples gear often, but also didn't have problems keeping them healed for large pulls.

Yeah. Things have changed. Tanks have the pigheaded mentality of "Pull everything. Fuck the DPS. Fuck the Healers." Hell I had a duty roulette last night. Tank rage quite due to it being Bismarck Ex. They need to bump up the penalty from 30 minutes to an hour.

What's wrong with DPS?

[Dotsudoku]

VIT impacts damage taken, Bis EX in the roulette, healers shouldn't have to DPS

All of your posts have been diamonds so far, let me tell you

I'll take your sarcasm with a grain of salt friend. Like I said before if a Healer has to DPS because the DPS themselves aren't up to snuff. Then it's a problem. I have no real issue DPSing since I had to do it for the first phase of T12 on Scholar, but since Astrologian has been released and they're on the bottom of the totem pole for healer DPS. I'm completely fine with that.

[The Stig]

VIT impacts damage taken

But it does! You can take more if you have more VIT!

[Serenseven]

Like I said before if a Healer has to DPS because the DPS themselves aren't up to snuff.

Or, you know, everybody might just miraculously know how to play their jobs and the healer is DPS-ing because he has the free time and MP for it.

But given the several hilarious errors in your posts so far, I'm guessing you've never encountered that situation.

You have just proven you have no idea what you're talking about.

Yes because my opinion doesn't agree with your ideals so I have no idea what I am talking about. Please enlighten me oh sagacious one.

The fact you think it's an opinion only emphasizes your ignorance.

[Taruina]

Hey guys, I've been healing since 1.0 early access. I obviously am the best judge for this.

Get out.

[DeadlyWaltz]

The fact you think it's an opinion only emphasizes your ignorance.

I'd be even more ignorant to state an opinion as fact. So tell me where is the common ground? Obviously I've struck a nerve some where or else you wouldn't be here.

Considering XIV is purely a numbers game more HP overall means better survival when they don't know how to tank, so there's some derpsafe built into being full vit, kinda like trash pulls in Alex 2 I seen a DRk in full STR with only 12k hp get floored even with Shadowskin versus my lazyass being in my vit setup (since I got my AS1-3 drops) and having 22k hp with no CDs used still surviving so eh.

It still comes down to if the tank knows wtf they're doing and if the healer can actually heal. I think the overall problem just comes down to: Full STR tanks tend to be shit 99% of the time lol thus why people hate em.

Hit the nail right on the head.

When I do my exp roulette on PLD, and i decide to do big pulls, i just wear full VIT gear because I'm just going to be flash spamming, and STR acc. aren't really going to make much of a difference. I'll pop my STR acc on for the bosses though.
