Coming from a long line of MMO’s I have always played the “healer/support” class. Even with GW2, where there is no dedicated healer profession, I chose the Guardian for their survivalbility, utility, heals, and overall support skills.
In most MMO’s, the dps classes would mock or never invite the dps specced Healer class, and in my opinion, usually had a point. But here, there is none of that because of the way GW2 was designed. The holy trinity does not exist.
It was pretty funny to me when I was blamed for not healing enough or curing their poison every time it came up. My current spec is 0/0/30/30/10. I am full support and it’s my primary focus while doing dungeons, etc.
For about 90% of my time here, the community has been great and my dungeon runs are great. But the selfish, glass cannon, no toughness/vitality, spam attack skills, no utility, lack of cc, dps people still exist. Some people are just ignorant to the way our heal spells work, still. They just cant seem to shake that mentality, that if they die it was your fault not theirs. Even in GW2.
