This irks me far more than it probably should when I'm healing as SCH. I like to stay close to the fray so my Succor can hit everyone, and I get really annoyed when that one BLM or what have you decides that standing WAAAAY on the other side of the arena is the thing to do.
I keep having to move and reposition so I can hit everyone with my mediocre AoE healing spell, or to make sure that my Fairy is in range to heal them. It gets annoying quick if they keep doing it.

I have memories of where I am its target but it doing cleaves and other attacks on the other members.He targets a random player for his sandwall column thing similar to first boss of qarn hm. He also targets another to punch and stun them. But otherwise should be on tank.
When tank died I had agro. Sorry drg, but if I'm going to be taking hard hits and you're -last- on the table, I'm not going to stand in front of it and take my shots like a tank. Cause I'm not a tank. For this run

OH. VENT POST.
Healers/casters, why do you stand sixty feet away from the enemies? If they don't cleave, there's little reason to be that far away.

He throws up a column cleave almost and he straight up punches someone in the face forcing a knockback and stun

Bleh. Mistook Qarn Story for Sastasha Hard.
My brain just filters them all into NOT SNOWCLOAK NEVER SNOWCLOAK for my expert roulettes.

... Though I had one run where the healer kept standing in the Yeti's breath and getting herself frozen in place.
RE: The Vent Tent - Poor PuGs and Other Terrible Tales - Warren Castille - 01-08-2015
Snowcloak might be my favorite dungeon in the game so far. It's just... great.
RE: The Vent Tent - Poor PuGs and Other Terrible Tales - Kage - 01-08-2015
I don't like snowcloack because it seems like things hit hard there when everyone wants to pull all the mobs so it's annoying to heal.
Also, STUN THE HARRIERS IF YOU PULL THE WHOLE ROOM GDI

I only find the first few enemies before the wolves hit harder than I expect them to.
No no, the ones that always shock me by how hard they hit are the pirate groups in the last room of Satasha hard mode. I can usually manage healing one group just fine, but something about adding a second group turns a manageable fight into "OH GOD, WHERE'D YOUR HEALTH GO!?"

I prefer "Broseidon, Ruler of the Brocean." Or "Brometheus." And someone else used "Rambro," which amused me.
BroForce. Because you asked for it.

WHILE SHOOTING THE ENTIRE TIME, WITH COOLDOWNS BURNING. BECAUSE LOBAHAWK IS A 700 POTENCY ATTACK.

This. I just let BRD take it honestly. I have a strict no-chase tank policy. If a voke+tomahawk doesn't bring it back to me, it's all yours. That was your one reprieve and you done messed up.

THIS. Why?? If the mob doesn't circle AoE, I'm up on that enemy's butt no matter what class I am. Healer, BRD, other. If I take hate, all the mob does is turn around and tank can smack it right back. And I can use all my close range instant abilities like Repelling Shot or Miasma II or whatever and never ever move. Range just makes no sense if you're not in danger being near tank.

Especially as a SCH. I'm basically relegated to hammering the Succor button and hoping I don't run out of MP before everything's dead.

I apologize. I can only Storm's Path so many Aevis (realistically... 1) before that AoE goes off... ; ; I try so hard.
