Ive played a healer in just about all the major mmos
These are our commandment s
Never played dps so I cant tell you how true this is
*Quality on this image could be better...
Love your healers folks
Contrary to popular belief....fire is NOT a buff
Heh
Ive actually said these exact words
Again...fire is NOT a buff
Sometimes you just cant win
I do hate you all....please for the love of all that is good and just play your role...if you fuck up....dont yell at the healer
Ive also done this many times...
As a rule:
If the Tank dies...its the Healers fault.
If the Healer dies...its the Tanks fault.
If the DPS dies...its their own damn fault.

You do DUNGEON AND DRAGON…. What about air from the metropolis globe? Making you see things?

The absolute worst: DON'T RUN AWAY FROM THE HEALER' S RANGE!
Spiderbubble
Or better yet: they line-of-sight you.
StickToYourPuns
I'm so thankful for healers in dungeons in Elder Scrolls Online
TicklesYourElmo
In eso i main an argonian healer named Tickles-Your-Elmo
Fellxo
Everytime we wiped in world of warcraft, the raid leader would immediately ask me and my healing squad, "Soooooo, healers. What happened?"
TheDudeThatIsMo
RESPECT THE HEALER/SUPPORT!!!
RealityIsOftenDisappointing
I am an avid healer, but I've been playing games recently that got away from the trinity. I miss the role, but I don't miss the people.
SolarPolarBear
Back when I played WoW I played a Resto Shaman. These are all pretty accurate
tanomil
dat UI tho. so fucking true, i think my UI is actually like that usually, if not worse lol
Corrodias
You can do better. You don't need gigantic health bars and two damage meters displayed at full size while raiding.
tanomil
i dont have that, i just have a bunch of addons
BrokenAnimal
Played pally for 3 years in WoW. Can confirm. All of it.
ducttapeforum
Anybody who stands in the fire and the overzealous DPS' who pulls everything all deserve their fate.
MilConDoin
dungeon run. 3 enhance shaman, 1 resto shaman, 1 tank (random, not in guild). the enhancers pulled and killed faster than the tank could.1/2
MilConDoin
healer was cursing, but managed to somehow keep us alive. after that run she went on her first raid. instantly better than old healers. 2/2

0.o front page. Thanks guys!

This is accurate.

My favorite thing about the Crusader's Crossbow is that it lets me shoot my teammates.

As a tank, thank you healers.

As a healer...thank you tank

#10 You got it all wrong
Blue4Five
What are a few modern MMO's worth playing online (for adults). I've done the whole Eve Online thing, and want to try something about as hard
Shohanna
FFXIV, WoW, Guild Wars, There are quite a few out there. Pick one you like! :D
Blue4Five
Problem with games like WoW is that they are made at a child's level. I'm looking for a bit more 'lose everything' risk like Eve.
iamonewiththecheese
That last one is why I could never have an open mic while healing. I'd prolly get kicked for the crap I yell about my raid if they heard me
GentlemanScientist
I usually said nothing because my jaw was clenched shut in a constant state of panic.
Textuality
Tanks and healers have a symbiotic relationship. DPS, on the other hand, are parasites. :)
Cicilla
Main heal the tank(s) off heal on dps
lankyscribbler
The thing is there are so many people playing DPS, you can always replace your current ones. Remind them of this.
TicklesYourElmo
I love reminding them of this and then laughing when they start to autistically screech
Malixet
Excellent DPS are worth their weight in mana. Sure, you CAN clear content as tank+healer, but it goes so much faster with good DPS...
MrGinn
"...slow down or die." Is my motto
TicklesYourElmo
Yup
GentlemanScientist
My proudest boss fight was when the DPS all stood in the fire leaving only me and the tank alive, and we finished the fight. Fuck yeah!
Acteon
I feel like my old healing UI fits here. :)

That resolution. Were you using an Etch-a-Sketch as a monitor?
Orepucer
No that's just wow
JumpBaconSpy
Like playing support in overwatch. The second anybody dies, they complain about not getting heals.
Crythulhu
I NEED HEALING
gimmechocolate
Hell, I've had people complain even when I was healing them the whole time.
Tywinning
Same deal when i mained Medic in TF2 a while ago, sometimes you just gotta give up on your team and take matters into your own hands...
JumpBaconSpy
My trust meter in tf2 was wacked, I either played heavy or spy, with some dabbling in various other stuff. Love being the heavy backbone.
SquishyStoat
What do you mean you can't heal me from across the map? What, you want me to stop running from you? What is this thing called "cover"?
JumpBaconSpy
God dammit genji stop turning around a different corner every two seconds so I can fly to you and heal you.

Cobaltios
I'm so glad that characters like Mercy get perfectly appropriate voice lines to go with how stupid everyone seems to be about it.

BiTESizEDKuKiZs
#7 As a fellow healer you'll always have that moment in choosing who needs saving. I just happen to want to be the one making that decision.
Drakhma
i do this, if i dont like you i let you die.
TicklesYourElmo
Yep those moments are always panic inducing
TicklesYourElmo
Ive let a tank drop before because it was so close to the end of a boss and the dps were the only ones who could drop it in time
BiTESizEDKuKiZs
Alot of the times, I find that the healer usually does quite abit of the tanking (super fun to tank heal in pvp as well)
GasBandit
I was primary healer for my guild's PVP battlegroup in Warhammer Online... and I have to admit it was because I cheated. (Cotd)
GasBandit
I found a way to fudge the line-of-sight check on heals and rezzes so I could sit safely inside a keep we were defending and heal/rez the
GasBandit
other 23 people in my group with impugnity, and naturally, rezzing them brought them back inside safely. Thus, they lost all caution and
GasBandit
our now-berserk Melee DPS and Tanks went hog wild without fear of repercussions, making us way more effective in a defense.
YourFriendSquid
When WOW dungeons are so easy you can stop heals out of anger and the group still clears
v
ketsmeow
That is my move. Did it in raids too. Idgaf, you need a healer
Sturmgeschutz
I'm sure the LFR group was pissed
Shoelebubba
Non mythic keystones sure. Low level keys on most affixes too. But can't really on 10+
nobunagasama
As a Death Knight tank, what's a healer?
Drakhma
i stopped playing wow, legion is just terrible, and everybody is WAY to anti social, FF14, much better, and vanila wow
YourFriendSquid
I don't even mind the anti social part of it, it's just so easy now, and classes have so much power you have to fuck up REALLY bad to die
tuckfrump
the 2.5 sec gcd is just aids, also its not the games fault when players are anti social, ff14 felt just the same. no 'hello' in dungeons etc
Drakhma
i see hello in dungeons every time in FF14, even when i dont say it 1st.\
Eddieq
Same, along with dance parties while we wait for the slowest PC to load.
Drakhma
nope dont see dance partys
TemplarXero
MRW both the healer and tank die and the DPS revives them
pippen1001
Vanish to jumper cables in vanilla saved many ress walks
brknsoul
Yeah. It sucked when they took that out. Feign Death, jumper cables healer. At least now I have a pet that can brez.
CharmanderShepard
i play both summoner and red mage in ffxiv. lots of laughter...
Pentacus
Healer: "oh god both tanks are dead and there's only me and the red ma- " Me: *rezzes everyone before the healers can even raise one tank"
imgbnt

SagaStrangeness
This actually happened to me in Destiny 2 last night XD
SmittyTitties
How are you playing destiny 2 o_o
SagaStrangeness
Open Beta
kindofacat
Pc has beta right now
SmittyTitties
HOW @DaiohDovahkiin
SagaStrangeness
Everyone in Destiny 2 can rs
SagaStrangeness
I was the Warlock (who can heal), my husband the dps and our friend the tank, when you die there's a 30sec Rez time, so when tank &I I died/
SagaStrangeness
My husband had to rush around the spawns and he boss to rez
SmittyTitties
I just meant how we're you playing. Had no idea D2 was out for for OC let alone a beta
TicklesYourElmo
Ive never seen this happen. Ive seen the tank and healer go down and the dps blows up the boss at the last second but never seen dps rez
spacecowboyein
Full damage druid insta-res mid battle. I don't know why you would build a druid that way but I haven't played in 10 years
Dunkywunkr
Ret Pally
DecepticonMoonsinger
Once as a Druid in wow I had to swap from dps to healer because our healer quit because the tank kept rushing ahead.
SagaStrangeness
In Destiny 2 everyone can rez
Shohanna
In FFXIV, you can as a dps kill the boss and then use a phoenix feather and rez the heals. Well, if they don't release first. :/
ShadowOftudhope
Tbis common place in FFXIV right now. Red mages are dos and have a instant cast rez on speed dial due to their chain spell mechanic.
mremaknu
Feral druid, I'm a backup if our resto druid goes down, mostly because the death knight tank is crap at paying attention.
arrbos
I've busted out a soulstone battleres once or twice. :)
Niddhoger
in SWTOR, DPS assassins and operatives can drop into stealth and attempt an out of combat revive on tank/healer/dipshit dps.
invar
I took five minutes during a boss fight to res the healer, the dps, the other dps, and the healer, again. Good tanks tank til they're dead
CounselorWaffles
Frost Death Knight in WoW. Aside from having monster DPS I was often brought along on raids simply because I was battle-rez capable.
pippen1001
I play all roles, and i used to bring the ressing pets in mop as a hunter. Oops idiot died, i better feign and switch to ress pet
TheForgewright
WoW engineering rogue. Tank and healers die, I vanish.
OnionCutter
As is good right and proper. For a few stories about abusing Vanish.
Juicytoast
Ffxiv: as a healer, I love summoners who rez. And now Red mages can rez too. My rezzing says are over!
ShadowBlade0911
Huh. Might actually look into playing a summoner or red mage then. Was arc, switched to bard cause arc sucks to level solo.
Juicytoast
Its not bad until you unlock Scholar. Because healer queues lol.
KillerTofu615
I'm a tank, if I die, it was my fault or the other tanks fault. Under no circumstances do I ever blame my healers.
TicklesYourElmo
I like your attitude
Niddhoger
Or the DPS fault. "What are these 'muh-can-icks' of which you speak? Must play with one hand and jack off to DPS meter with other!"
rayhatesu
Only blame the healer if you know they could've saved you. For example, I've died because a healer DPS'd until I was at 5% health then >
rayhatesu
tried to heal me . . . right as I got hit by a mini-tankbuster for the equivalent of 1/4 my health. at that point, nmf.
Mondasin
or on bosses that MC and you don't double check your target before using a hybrid spell. Rip that poor warlock I crit with a holy shock.
SupportOnly
in Elder Scrolls Online everybody can rez as often they like to...and in high endgame raids you need that :)
Callintryluck
Dang Right. Those Trail Bosses hit hard as hell
SupportOnly
yup sadly the devs fked this good game ,so i switched to wow
Callintryluck
Trial*** FML
Direwolflord
On ffxiv if the healer goes down and you have a summoner you can at least hope they notice enough to revive you
SomeWateryTartThrewASwordAtMe
Reminds me, I need to play the new content
Cat656
And the new red mage can rez about 5 or 6 people in a row
songbringer
as an RDM, I go through my entire mana pool rezzing pub healers in Susano Ex. I need to make the standard passive-aggresive macro for it.
Direwolflord
I haven't played since that came out, friend was suppose to buy me the expansion and it sorta never happened
everythingisalieexceptthestuffthatisnt
Let me guess...they're a healer?
mediamagnet
I play smn have pulled several white mages back from the grave
Direwolflord
And we are usually greatful, least I am
mediamagnet
Yes most are.
