Waited 3 hours for a healer

too much effort for not enough reward.

this is why i dont wanna do m+ or raiding tbh i stick to pvp

You know when DPS don’t pull def CDs when you had 76k HPS OVERALL in a +19 Tyrannical

I won’t play my healer anyway. I switched to tanking and why? Because I was forced to dps

Oh yeah this. This was another reason why I quit healing. I had 5 healers out of 10 characters.

OP probably queued under Mythic instead of Mythic Keystone.

why not. LFR is not open at start of a patch. Catalyst is not unlocked at the start of a patch

They can just make M0 q open at 0.5 patches.

I absolutely 100% refuse to pug keys. I’ve had far too many bad experiences with toxic players that I’d rather not put myself through it. It’s sad really because I love healing.

If this happens in a m0 you let the tank die over and over until he either learns or leaves.

In most mythic dungeons unless you are stupidly overgeared for it you can’t pull from boss to boss, if you are appropriately geared for the key level people will just be dying all over the place :man_facepalming:

I’ve done keys from 2-20+ and that is not how you pull dungeons, tank was an idiot and you shouldn’t let it get to you.

I hate it. So, so much. I’ll do it, but I think it’s terrible that it’s become this whole thing now.

Just lemme go back to MoP style hpally heals, plskthnx.

Just do +2 spam, easy

Healers dps’ing has been “a thing” since Burning Crusade.

Correct. Damage abilities and wands have always existed. The “expectation” that healers do DPS is really about the game being out for years and people finally catching on that you can always be contributing to the group’s success, and if there is nothing to heal… guess what, you can throw out a damage key.

I remember back in Wrath, I made this suggestion. And of course it got shot down back then for the same reasons. At least the playerbase has caught up.

It has nothing to do with “you have to DPS” and everything to do with “why wouldn’t you DPS during downtime.”

Resto Druids were tossing out Moonfires between heals since vanilla, even. In fact that spec was ideally suited to it since the HoTs were doing the work.

Ohhhh realllyyy??? So, like, the healers I saw in BC who weren’t dps’ing… and the ones in Wrath… and Cata… and… etc etc etc… they were all ghosts, right?

K. Gotcha.

No, they just weren’t contributing to the team as much as they could.

They existed, sure. They also could have thrown out damage keys back then, too.

I know I did, because I also played DPS classes and recognized that finding ways to contribute as much as possible was a fulfilling way to play.

Just because a lot of players didn’t do it doesn’t mean nobody did it. /shrug

I’ve pug healed for years and almost never experienced any specific toxicity. GD makes it sound like they’re attacked on a constant basis. lol

Yeah, I genuinely can’t remember the last time I got flamed in a dungeon, even if it was my fault. Usually the person flaming in my keys was flaming everyone and not specifically me.
