Words Have Meaning: Healer =/= DPS

If you want the healers to dps, then tell them to play their dps spec.

Don’t be surprised when you’re not getting healed, though, if you do this.

This. Imma just spam cast smite and let them suffer the consequences if they ask me to dps more.

Don’t worry. Dungeons do enough damage now that nobody is expecting healers to DPS anymore.

You win.

Most groups are happy if the healer actually manages to keep everybody alive for the whole run at this point.

Healers paying 15$ a month for other people to play the game for them

Then get angry when asked to do a bit of dps instead of afking

I expect to see all DPS then on the healing meters healing the party for at the least the percentage that I’m DPS’ing. Don’t like it? Learn your class and figure out how you can

They don’t get a chance to, damage is pretty high.

I mean I’m usually above the healer in mythics

Wanna try that again?

Then the tank asks why there are 2 dps doing 10k and a healer with 15% activity time and leaves.

Nothing obtuse was said

You just talked about dps not healing, when most dps have a self heal or shields they use

Healers should do dps when possible, hell healers would basically be AFK for 3/4 bosses in jade temple

If you’re healing then fine, dungeons can be tough atm so understandable if you have no time.

There is no afking group content as a healer though, so if you have nobody to heal you need to be mashing DPS buttons like everybody else.

Not sure who taught you to play a healer like this, but I assure you it’s not how it’s done.

Easier said than done, how about being considerate of others for once. Healing abilities with dmg abilities is too much ability bloat. It’s bad enough having 20 healing buttons now you want us to click an extra 3 dmg buttons as well

Someone also needs to inform blizzard that DPS=/support, so Shadow Priests can actually be useful.
