Oh noooo, you have to try to trust the people you willingly jump into a group with to do their jobs! That would no doubt be much easier if you networked and found a consistent group of people you know that’re good and how to function!
Really? You can’t do anything about incorp either without sacrificing a bunch of talents to get Shattering Throw, and that one is detrimental to the whole group if it goes bad because then you just get 100% of doing nothing.
Yeah, I run with my husband’s prot pally (sup, Fairlight!) and we’re usually able to tag team all the incorps, so we can take pretty much any dps we want, though it’s rare that we don’t have another dispel in our group.
If only all healers did the same you do, most don’t even do the basic
Fair enough, but he can still dispell one and heal the other
it is not, Blizz gotta change something to encourage people to get better
they can start by copying Final Fantasy XIV and making mechanics more easily readable so we won’t need an addon to help us with mechanics
You make it sound so simple.
You prolly didn’t read the whole post or simply ignored the part i was talking about joining a guild or having a group of friends lmao, good argument bro
yeah i checked it after, i usually don’t have this problem with my ret pala doing 20s but while trying to gear my alts doing 11s and 16s i’m having a lot of problems with bad players
I know, but my numbers will literally be cut in half when my healer and the other specs that can interact with this affix ignore it and i have -100% haste
he’s part of a minority of people who actually knows how to play their role/spec
he’s actually knows, you thought i was going to say sh*t to him? lol
like i said, he’s part of a minority that knows how to play the game
the problem is the majority of players that actually doesn’t know
no wait let me rephrase that
the problem is Blizzard doing a bad game design with a affix that cannot be interacted by a lot of specs in the game
Do you know how much healing those require? Far more GCDs than that ret pally’s single cleanse or that mage’s single decurse.
And yes, it is simple for them to help out. It’s bonkers to me you want to throw your healer under the bus instead of being upset the two other dps couldn’t use a single GCD to help out.
I’m a healer in keys for high keys in keys that keys and I hate afflicted because it’s just another thing us pugger healers have to pay attention to. We already do most of the work in this crap now we got another job.
I know this is most likely a typo but I had so much fun reading this because I pictured some PTSD as you had to reflect on what you were saying and whether or not you really liked running keys - high keys - as a pug healer.
The problem, imo, is people bring a horrendous comp to deal with it. If someone is brining something like a Warlock, Warrior, DH as their DPS they aren’t thinking about the affix.
If you can’t deal with it as a Warrior that’s perfectly fine, the issue is not bringing like a DPS Shaman, Druid, Mage, Monks, Priest, or Paly to help out (I guess we can thrown in Evoker too >_<). That’s all it takes to nail the affix down, 1 of those classes as DPS and to be aware that the affix exists in the first place.
I would mention tanks but I feel for tanks in the middle of a scary pull so I’m not going to include them, if they can handle it though even better.
Usually healers are more intelligent players, that’s why i don’t trust random tanks and specially DPS to do anything at all
If i’m a healer and i see the first set of Afflicted was ignored by my tank paladin and my mage dps, i’ll start dispelling one and healing the other because i will never trust two incompetents to help dealing with it, i’ll try to teach them once, if they ignore it and keep making mistakes i just give up
In this group i was i even tried to teach them 3 TIMES but they ignored it
i went from 300k dps overall to 150k-130k because EVERY SINGLE ONE was going out and i had the debuff almost 100% uptime
Me and the Warlock who were carrying them we just left, i’m not wasting my time with people who ignore simple mechanics even after being told 3x how to do it
I wasn’t even toxic, i just explained simple and directly to them lol
“Please dispell ghost” i said ghost because maybe they didnt knew what Afflicted even was
Then i said “Please don’t let the affix go out”
i even explained about the -100% haste we were having all the time
the priest just said “PLEASE STOP” because i was pinging the affix ghost, and guess what, it kept going out and debuffing everyone
the Warlock said the same
and then the Priest kept saying “that’s not true, there’s nothing wrong” lmao
after that i just left i dont care
my sanity is more important than some crests and flightstones
Again, please tell me how many GCDs it takes to heal one. If your healer was a holy priest, they might’ve been able to do it without issue. A disc priest might struggle to top one off in time.
When you checked dispels at the end of the run, how many did the pally and mage have compared to the priest?
