Feels good standing up for the little guy.
So we're doing a WP HM run. Tank was fresh, Bard was decently geared and I was a flat i100. The healer, a WHM, was decked in full Dreadwyrm's including a zeta sporting Aug'd IW gear.
Run starts, everything goes to shit. Healer is like berating all of us for being noobs. I take note of what he was doing the next go round. He's in cleric stance. I say nothing just yet. The tank, being so fresh was obviously feeling the pressure. He kept apologizing when he did nothing wrong, because I see him pop his cd's and holmgang things when it just got too dicey. Now that was beginning to bug me because you don't get that many people willing to tank anything these days and he's still getting shit for doing his job.Â
We, meaning I, managed to 1v1 the first boss through some miracle. Healer starts berating us again.
Halfway through the run the healer goes something like this. I tried to make sense of his less than average english.
"Hey drg, I'm out dpsing you as a healer."
"And?"
"So that means you suck. -insert more epeen waving-"
That's when I decided to tear him a new one for the sake of the entire team.
"I won't deny that, but look at my gear versus yours. A zenith versus a zeta and pointing out higher dps? I smell a tryhard. I'm also not decked in Dreadwyrms but I think I have enough common sense to be a healer and not run cleric stance 24/7 SINCE THE START OF THE RUN. Did you know I'm a better healer then? Because my basic thrusts paired with bloodbath heals for way more than you could ever recover."
"It's not like the tank would say anything though, he's been apologizing for his 'shitty' tanking this run when he's not doing anything wrong. He's pulling at his pace and you're just making the run harder by pulling more than he can handle and churn out less than average heals I think a BLM physickspamming heals for more."
*Initiates vote dismiss*
*Dismisses healer*
*Gets a lower geared healer, probably not higher than i100. Finishes run without any further deaths.*
*Gives a few tips to the tank.*
It geels good to stand up for others. Also to help out the newer wave of aspiring tanks.
