The Little Healer - Ch. 17 - The Cause

It's quite strange there was never friendship or at least comradeship between the healers and the other classes, in any adventuring party. All the parties alienated the healers, like following orders from above, disregarding their personal feelings, and the healers all responded in kind and ultimately left. You'd think quite a few teams would have treasured their healer(s), after many an adventure and battle against monsters. Of course cases like depicted in the chapter would also happen, especially when there developed no friendship between the members and they all just greedily sought their own fortunes.

Oh I can wholeheartedly relate to that, was an Energy Elf aka "def/attack buff and heal" sub class of Elf in Mu Global.
Loot share was a bitch, since I obviously stood at the center with mobs spawn at edges or at the back fighting a level boss, missing a drop being behind loot zone was common.
Plenty of times people thought nobody would notice in a log where gained exp or picked loot was displayed in details if item was picked up, there was a visible "item picked up by nickname".

So after a grind or immediately after a valuable gem dropped, people would bail or pretend it wasn't them.

Energy Elfs grouped up on forums, sharing nicknames and screenshots as proof of people with ill intentions or not be trusted.
This allowed to situations when Energy Elf could form a party with a one or few of those people, lead them to normally lethal area without a buff and if party decided to go AFK (which was common) feed them to mobs. Dieing cost exp drop or even their own worn equipment to drop

Don't piss off a healer.

So trueeee, any support player could relate.

Many players think if you aren't doing damage with flashy moves and abilities you aren't pulling weight. Support players get all the shitty jobs that usually go unthanked, makes it easy to feel underappreciated. Especially so when the entire team puts their fault on the support.

Tank over pushes and dies? "Why didn't healer heal tank, report healer"

Attacker is outclassed or 1 v 2? "Where tf is healer, report healer"

Mage gets one shot in enemy territory? "Why didn't healer ward better?, report healer"

It's never ending

Thiisss.

Had numerous times when attackers/coward control gone "hunting" from the spot or route to a boss while buffed and be outraged I didn't follow. Like, the fuck was I supposed to do, leave everyone behind to the spawn?

Also if they died and got back all the way back to respawn, called to haul their ass because they kept dieing trying to get back. Yep, I'm just going to leave everyone else behind...
