At first thought cat girl is out of line and should be replaced.
But there seems to be so few decent people in their world that the chance of finding someone decent that can & is willing to take cat girl's role is rather low, so that option falls off.
Optionally MC and doggo man could possibly grind lower levels to increase in strength and proceed as a duo, but let's be real, that won't happen.

Honestly if it were up to me, I'd probably ditch the cat girl and try going the 2 man party route, the only problem I can see arising is things would progress incredibly slowly, as they'd lose their DD/DPS. I could then see the dog guy eventually tapping out at some point, and then him being stuck solo as a healer. Which also can work but would be exponentially slower, and more dangerous. Though they respawn in this world, so honestly, I'd go for it. If the world is fucked up, let them be fucked up. If you've played a healer before, you know what its like going solo. It's the slowest pace imaginable, and incredibly dull, but it can work.

It’s healer paradox all over again, defending the tank you get hate from dps, defending dps and tank did sloppy job.
That’s what lead most of healer become asshole and stop caring as well, they need one nore role to that party the one that specialize in crowd control and can have much bigger point of view of battlefield, that man supposed to be field leader and makes a minute decision while keeping the morale up.

I'm still not sure what the base dysfunction for our lady is. Obviously, it involves legit past drama that she had with team members that lead to major fuck ups that she was at least partially responsible for. We know Garm's big deal was his low attack based feelings of impotence and dragging others down because of that.

Our Mc though, Hot diggity damn is he touchy about that "lucky boy" nickname. I kinda get it since it's discrediting all the hard work and skill he's developed and put to use over god only knows how long he played this game in the other world and it's just another reminder that everyone thinks he's a moron, but damn does he turn on a dime when somebody calls him that.

@Kazedoom AOE heals. and if that missed the DPS, his fault. i got better things to do in most cases than being a Scout's pocket medic. like actually healing red bars.

They do respawn, but apparently they loose most, if not all, of their equipment if they are resurrected this way.

Also: MC introduced innovative techniques that provided tangible advantages, we contested him before and we have been proven wrong, his original strategy is allowing us to do thing we believed impossible. Logical conclusion: let's ditch the winning strategy in the middle of the fight in favour of old strategies that already proved to be failing.
200IQ right there.

Tsutomu: "It's easy to evade water bullets becau-" *gets hit by said waterbullet*
*gets up as if nothing happened*
"All according to plan."

So what basically happened in case future readers are confused by the translation:
After putting the [Shell Crab] in frenzy mode with it foaming at the mouth and running away to heal, Tsutomu seemingly suggests that they back off to go check on areas it wasn't heading first then to go and check up on the trap later to see if the [Shell Crab] fell for it.

Amy and Garm,both initially being frantic and hasty want to go after the [Shell Crab] directly instead in-order to finish it off before then, making Tsutomu realize that they were both too worked up to think clearly and assess that their main purpose for fighting the [Shell Crab] was to find out its hiding place via a trap first.

Garm gets talked out of it by Tsutomu, initially citing Garm's potion use for the day as an incentive to stop early for the day, which Garm then seemingly proceeds to say that they weren't in God's favor today to beat the [Shell Crab].

Amy promptly disagrees with this sentiment saying they wouldn't get another chance like this, as a 3-person team, showing she still deep down holds the sentiment that they are very 'LUCKY' to have been able to push the [Shell Crab] this far and that the trap idea wasn't going to work anyway because 'no one else' or 'top guilds' have been able to do it. Showing further how much lack of faith she has in the trap plan, and directly/indirectly Tsutumo.

Tsutumo notices this, but wants to de-escalate the situation, until Garm ignorantly remarks that it may have just been Amy's previous clan that wasn't able to go through the plan hoping she would emphapthize with this sentiment because Garm's previous clan was also unable to do it too.

Amy, obviously taking offense to that sentiment that the clan she was previous a part of was at fault indirectly saying she was also incompetent because she was a part of the clan, then proceeds to personally attack Garm, and then ignorantly maybe the trap might actually work since they have "LUCKY BOY!" on their side.

Garm is obviously aware at this point of how much trouble this moniker has been been for Tsutumo and gets super pissed at Amy, because she was basically not acknowledging Tsutumo skills after-all this time of partying together and was acting no different if not beneath the "surface dwelling insects" who hung around Tsutumo.

Tsutumo at this point, was already aware more or less that there was something a bit "off" about how Amy acted around him, but hearing outright from her made him snap a little on the inside. He wants to be taken seriously for his achievements and even though he's been working with Amy to change her mind about his usefulness as a person and white mage, Amy only saw a "LUCKY BOY!" who had unique skills {flying heals & enhancements} who was favored by the God of the Live Dungeon.

Taking this into consideration, Tsutumo then proceeds to treat Amy on only a professional level, joking about her using his moniker as "LUCKY BOY", and then directly moving on to business as usual. Not putting in the effort to correct her or change her mind, because to him then Amy was simply a "hired party-member" not someone like Garm.

@KinGrove Really nicely explained, thanks. I was a bit lost with the conversation, but your comment helped enlighten a lot.
