You know what though, I consider it compensation for being a healer, and having consistently lame looking gear. Dear SE: Not all healers are playing female characters or cross dressers. Robes that don't look like dresses would be nice.
thevoxdeus they have a new art contest for magic users this time. some1 please save our healer armor. altho... stormblood has 4th job specific armor nd whm looks almost like ashe in ff12. I feel like healers shuld have robes or light armor. dresses weren't common until ast. and I love tht, and sch had its school looking stuff. a ff phone game, I think brave exvius, the whm cross archer has whm sleeves then a shorter dress.

@@smaller_cathedrals and why u support this trash healer, who ,act bossy,selfnessly we all know tank is leader,folo by healer (backbone),dps is supporter but if backbone do not fking do his/her job she is trash and nab nothing more
I'm pretty sure that a tank with the proper hate-grabbing tools can and should eclipse the aggro of any other party member, provided they get a head-start on hitting a particular mob.
This is true, on both accounts. If the tank isn't very good you better be sure I'm gambling on whether or not I'm going to pull aggro. There are some tanks where I go, "If I heal you, what are the chances I'm going to pull aggro from you?" and sure enough there it is xD Worse part is is when they don't notice either and I'm getting a fist full of hate while they're taking some massive damage too xD Some tanks are just really squishy and they take so much damage (for a number of reasons such as broken gear, under geared etc.) that it's not our fault we have to top off your health because every hit brings you that much closer to death...
If the Sch pulls then somethings gone wrong, shields don't gain much aggro (especially compared to regens), dots are slow building, and the fairy gets aggro separately, plus a lack of sustained intense healing (great burst though)
On the topic of the LB3 for Healers, it's seriously one of the most powerful, and my favourite Limit Break in the game. Looks awesome and you legit revive everyone. Imagine the clutches. You could give the WHOLE DUNGEON a little spook.
I wish it were true that the "spook" was intentional. But you're completely right on how OP it is. Every single time I've used LB3 in a (clearly failing) party, everything had been going a little bit rough with a little more Medica than usual... Until people get too many Damage Up debuffs and 4/5ths of the party die in one hit, suddenly, and instantly. It's you and maybe a tank alive. HOPEFULLY one tank alive. That LB key is so close to where my fingers always are. But it still has a small cast bar. SMASH IT. If anything else in the duty is alive to take two hits for you, YAY everybody gets a second chance to derp... I've smashed it a few times but I was the only thing left alive. It's so sad to see that cast bar interrupted...
NecNix I wait til I am told I can use the limit break. playing a sch I feel like I'm expected to help with dps while healing too. when tanks just pulling without telling you its a speed run let him die.
Well, a LB3 saved like, more than half of the party during the royal menagerie Thank the paladin who told the healer to use LB3 and the healer for using it
Remember, as the Healer you need to assert your dominance over the group by letting them wipe first. This lets them know that you are serious business, and that they better start grovelling at your feets!
DarthRoxas Xlll I once had to kinda heal a dungeon as summoner because the actual healer would not heal so all I did was cast physick on the tank and that was the first and only time I have healed
The worse part about being a healer is when Tank pulls wayyyy too much and you've told them not to several times T_T but because you keep them alive they assume you can handle it... until you don't...
John Ford it's funny wht dungeons I call easy... my almost worse is when tank pulls 3 rooms plus the wamora in amdapor hard mode. I always say if u really want 3 rooms and up, warn me 1st
Chris Dean LOL. I loved that game. Literally played that all the time when I ran things with friends. Literally forced them to use hallowed ground/Living dead/holmgang.
always blame the healer. Healer always has to be in cleric stance, even while healing. Healer should always have unlimited mp. Healers always need to have lb3 ready, even during 4 man
don't know how many times I forgot to turn off cleric stance or turned it back on by accident. also got yelled at for using a lb 3 when everyone was about to die and I was the only healer with no mp lol
Oh Boy about the WHM xD It sounds like: Paladin: I love to protecc my friends and heal the healer if they f*** up! WhiteMage: Peace was never an Option.
First sentence a healer always hear "Healer is the easiest rol to play". Then it is me playing as a high-end healer in every single game at the edge of a heart attack having flashbacks. And this, my friends, is the estressful and complex life of a quality healer (and not a professional wiping light robe mage).
As a healer I actually do think that healing is pretty easy*, but I wouldn't call it the easiest. It's not like doing rotations is hard when the rotations are basically spoonfed to you via tooltips and built into the game via combos. *in normal trials and duties, it's easy. the moment you get to extreme/savage you need to be on top of that shit, especially if the tanks/dps aren't
@@skywise8 Nope, if you're standing in fire I'm pretty sure I can out-DPS you with Stone instead of trying to keep your derp arse alive so... Enjoy the floor
its the worst possible insult for a healer...makes me feel like a waiter that didnt get tipped...."uhm,excuse me sir?was everything ok with the service today?"
Hello everyone healer main here (mostly WHM) Manto Lulfar on the Coeurl server anyways I see people arguing a lot about the whole Clemency thing as an insult to healers but I want to say that I'm perfectly fine with the PLD using it honestly allowing me to feel less stressed as a healer just a note the self healing really shouldn't be used a whole lot since CD's need to be managed properly. I like to use Tetragrammaton as my first string heal since the CD isn't super long but still manageable throughout a dungeon/raid fight and then go from there. When trash pulls occur or when boss fights start I usually open with a medica 2 and regen on the main tank and then switch to cleric stance allowing about 20 seconds of decent HoT's while I squeeze out some DPS but if my tank gets hit by his/her tank buster then I will use a CD out of cleric stance maybe reapply medica 2 or regen and then swap back. As for raid wide damage I will use assize as a main CD for healing and the bit of MP. Push come to shove if the raid takes some damage at around 40%-50% HP I use medica and reapply medica 2. Just a note I notice a lot Tanks I get usually don't use Clemency maybe because of the MP cost??? Idk but ehh the whole DPS as a healer really isn't an issue for me but depending on the dungeon or raid where heavy healing is required then I will mostly focus on healing and if my tank is not the greatest then I'm probably full time heals.
As someone who played both WHM and PLD at 70, yes, use clemency. It's the only reliable non-CD damage mitigation a PLD has (Sheltron is kindof a joke against tankbusters) and if you don't use it you are wasting healer MP. Healers are the only role that has to really worry about going OOM. BLM goes OOM as part of their rotation. A lot of DPS doesn't even use MP. Tanks reliably get their MP back over the course of the fight. Etc. Meanwhile a WHM who has no MP is going to be sweating bullets while waiting for Lucid Dreaming/Thin Air/Assize to come back up.
This gave me such a laugh, god Zephla I love your videos. I just discovered your channel the other day and I just started playing 14 two weeks ago. You’ve been simultaneously helpful and entertaining.. well, not always simultaneously lmao. Keep up the good work and I look forward to seeing more of your content!!!!
Top notch healing advice for any new healers out there. I've been healing since XI, and now that I've came across this healing tutorial, my healing skills are better than ever. I'm always the main talk of the party, I've been respected more now than ever.
when you see the animation for blood price go off, that's your cue to spam holy. make sure you do it after your first 4 second, then 2 to maximize the times the trash is stunned
I can agree with that. Not just that but I'm bothered by the stupid little green barrette in the front! I can't wear my thavarian headdress cause it looks really stupid >.>
Seeing this 2 years later: Then you have GNB with Superbolide, where when the Healer waits to the last second to use Beni, we can piss it all away and reassert ourselves as a priority.
Then you're not just Clemency-slapping the healer in the face - you are shoving shit down his throat while giving him the middle finger with the other hand.
Thanks for the tips. I just came back to FFXIV so I can get ready before Stormblood. Been wanting to try out healer, and you make it sound pretty fun. I'll definitely be following your advice. Liked and subscribed.
This was legit funny asf. Im new to FFXIV (been playing for like a week now) and my god I'm so fucking mad it took me this long to find this masterpiece. I maining Monk now, but definitely want to try all three roles. Thnx for laughs, keep up the solid work.
I don’t know how to read so I didn’t understand the red text at the beginning, but I did understood what you said and I’ll make sure I follow this Guide and also teach this method to new players, thank you. My friend wrote this comment for me. I can’t write either.
actually, being your own #1 target is not completely wrong,since if you forget to heal yourself, the rest of the party will die too (happened way too often to me xD)
even though it meant to be a joke, some times you had a point. im a whm and i feel alittle offended when the tank does clemency. edit. after people explained to me the reasons for them healing themselves, im not too bothered by it nowadays.
From my perspective, I'll usually do Divine Veil > Clemency myself, since I can control when the shield goes out. During a big pull or boss fight/Primal/Savage, etc, though, any non-Divine Veil-triggering Clemency casting is absolutely intended to be a slap in the face to inattentive healers.
Jesus christ how dumb are you...clemency could be considered just another mitigation tool, where you dont have to heal the PLD but just keep DPSing. No one ever bitches about WAR Inner Beast, Thrill of Battle, Equilibrium or DRK Dark Arts-Soul Eater self-healing.
I just wanted to tell you that your oxygen mask metaphor saved a duty that kept wiping, it finally got it through to the healer that they need to keep themselves alive before taking care of the tank. We finally beat it on our sixth (ugh) attempt.
Thank you for jokingly demonstrating Medica 2 + Regen prepull as a good idea. Too many healers seriously think it's a good thing to put Regen on the tank prepull and I constantly see so much time wasted in dungeons because tanks have to fight to retake aggro from all the enemies in a pull.
You forgot about Rezzing just before a boss's main attack phase so that as soon as the target is rezzed they instantly die from the boss's attack. Timing for that is crucial and it puts the dps in their place for not being able to take care of themselves.
oh i know. I'm normally a dps, and a dragoon for that matter, so I know its my responsibility to understand and pay attention to the patterns of the enemy and cycle my rotations accordingly. im just saying its funny when i make a mistake and die, wait to be rezzed, get rezzed by the healer trying to do the best job they can, and as soon as I spawn, before i can do anything, I get ko'd by the currently happening enemy attack. it really is funny, actually. I'm usually "goddamnint! *sigh* i deserved this..."

Pro tip for playing as a healer: let your tank die at the very start of a dungeon to subtly remind them that you're actually the one in charge

Finally a guide that says that im doing it right :D
"If you pull agro it means you're doing good" Had someone give this advice to a healer once and they were being serious! XD
Class FF-101 Well, technically true. It means you're doing good AND the tank isn't doing good at all.
Well, no tank can hold aggro against a healer who never stops casting massive heals. If a whm wants aggro, you can be damn sure they'll have it
I'm pretty sure that a tank with the proper hate-grabbing tools can and should eclipse the aggro of any other party member, provided they get a head-start on hitting a particular mob.
This is true, on both accounts. If the tank isn't very good you better be sure I'm gambling on whether or not I'm going to pull aggro.

You are without a doubt my favourite ffxiv TH-camr
"You should be using limit break as much as possible! because its a free heal!" (this totally made my day :-)
Top notch healing advice for any new healers out there. I've been healing since XI, and now that I've came across this healing tutorial, my healing skills are better than ever. I'm always the main talk of the party, I've been respected more now than ever.
Should I give to this tank a little spook?
Do you have Benediction? If so, than yes. Of course you should. What kind of healer would you be if you didn't?
This awesome advice and these tips still stand strong today in 2020! Respect!
Omg, as a healer, this is 100% how I wish I could play the game.
First time seeing your videos and I love them! Subbed 😄
when you see the animation for blood price go off, that's your cue to spam holy. make sure you do it after your first 4 second, then 2 to maximize the times the trash is stunned
I'm new and I learned a lot! Thanks! I'll be doing my first dungeon tonight and I think a lot of these tips will help. :)
You're back to your old hairstyle? o:
Gii She cried for the new one and then she changed it !
the other hair has started to bother me because it looks like a wad of undercooked noodles in the back
I can agree with that. Not just that but I'm bothered by the stupid little green barrette in the front! I can't wear my thavarian headdress cause it looks really stupid >.>
Zepla HQ
Thanks for the guide I was looking for, just started to play conjurer, will follow every step :3
Seeing this 2 years later:
Then you have GNB with Superbolide, where when the Healer waits to the last second to use Beni, we can piss it all away and reassert ourselves as a priority.
I laughed so much at the text bubble for Raya-O-Senna XD!!!! Nice work Zepla
I just came across your channel and I love this video! it's exactly how I heal and I main whm 😂😂
"Rezzing so he can uninstall the game" that made me to lose it xD
But Zepla! What if we Warriors use one of our many self heals?
Then you're not just Clemency-slapping the healer in the face - you are shoving shit down his throat while giving him the middle finger with the other hand.
This comment just made my night.
Seth Matteson if you do that
Not only it's no more heals for you, but the healers are inclined to rescue you into AoE attacks
Thanks for the tips. I just came back to FFXIV so I can get ready before Stormblood. Been wanting to try out healer, and you make it sound pretty fun. I'll definitely be following your advice. Liked and subscribed.
Gonna put a macro on my benediction to say 'clench 'em butt cheeks
This was legit funny asf. Im new to FFXIV (been playing for like a week now) and my god I'm so fucking mad it took me this long to find this masterpiece. I maining Monk now, but definitely want to try all three roles. Thnx for laughs, keep up the solid work.
Jokes on you. I'mma heal like this anyways.
well the macro telling the target to uninstall the game is actually helpfull xD thanks hahahaha
I don’t know how to read so I didn’t understand the red text at the beginning, but I did understood what you said and I’ll make sure I follow this Guide and also teach this method to new players, thank you. My friend wrote this comment for me. I can’t write either.

"An extremely powerful white mage"
*Did you just assume my class?*
Edit: When the hell did I comment this? Apparently a year ago lmao
What other class would you play?
GekoHayate Astrologian or Scholar tyvm
whoever made this is bonded to me in such a spiritual way! lol
I do consider Clemency to be a personal insult to my healing, if y'all can heal yourselves so good you don't need me so I'ma go make a snack
lol #triggeredhealer
schwarzschild radius lol #thinkshesacoolkid
i also consider smn's physick and rdm's vercure as an insult. i have a raise macro ready saying "didnt you have physick/vercure? :O"
I use Clemency for Divine Veil cuz' healers will take almost 3 seconds to know that I need healing.
Leonard Papruz vercure I give a pass because they sometimes use it to proc dualcast, but everything else yes!
this was amazing!
actually, being your own #1 target is not completely wrong,since if you forget to heal yourself, the rest of the party will die too (happened way too often to me xD)
even though it meant to be a joke, some times you had a point. im a whm and i feel alittle offended when the tank does clemency. edit. after people explained to me the reasons for them healing themselves, im not too bothered by it nowadays.
jesus fucking christ.....
SpaceGrape whaat?
Paladin's only use for mp is flash and clemency, to not use clemency is to waste resources.
From my perspective, I'll usually do Divine Veil > Clemency myself, since I can control when the shield goes out. During a big pull or boss fight/Primal/Savage, etc, though, any non-Divine Veil-triggering Clemency casting is absolutely intended to be a slap in the face to inattentive healers.
Jesus christ how dumb are you...clemency could be considered just another mitigation tool, where you dont have to heal the PLD but just keep DPSing. No one ever bitches about WAR Inner Beast, Thrill of Battle, Equilibrium or DRK Dark Arts-Soul Eater self-healing.
thanks Zepla, really helpful advice I'll definitely give it a shot :3 xD
That Benediction tip will only work until there is a Gunbreaker.
"Turn on cleric stance"
Well that did not age well >.>
I found myself fondly remembering my Bard's old backflip Purple Rain move at 0:50. :)
How have I not seen this until now..This is great.
i think people took your advice. ^^;;
(said as a dead tank on the floor)
This absolutely murdered me, you madam have a new sub.
Haha, so glad I found your channel, vids are always fun XD
'When Paladins use Clemency, that says that they think they are better than you.'
Well she isn't wrong 😉
I just wanted to tell you that your oxygen mask metaphor saved a duty that kept wiping, it finally got it through to the healer that they need to keep themselves alive before taking care of the tank. We finally beat it on our sixth (ugh) attempt.
This is satire on how to be a complete jerk right?
thank you !! i'm a new player and healer and it was so helpful
Now I feel I'm ready to try healing.
I took this advice and am the best healer on my shard now, thanks zepla
This is EXACTLY, how to heal.
Just got yourself a sub for this video alone, finally someone gets it.
Good to know i was healing right. Always in a cool spot and definitely taking care of myself over the party. Great guide :D
Thank you for jokingly demonstrating Medica 2 + Regen prepull as a good idea. Too many healers seriously think it's a good thing to put Regen on the tank prepull and I constantly see so much time wasted in dungeons because tanks have to fight to retake aggro from all the enemies in a pull.
Thank you, I will follow your guide and be a badass healer too now ! o/
You forgot about Rezzing just before a boss's main attack phase so that as soon as the target is rezzed they instantly die from the boss's attack. Timing for that is crucial and it puts the dps in their place for not being able to take care of themselves.
Uhm, I don't want to spoil the fun... but that one isn't really the healers fault. :P
oh i know. I'm normally a dps, and a dragoon for that matter, so I know its my responsibility to understand and pay attention to the patterns of the enemy and cycle my rotations accordingly. im just saying its funny when i make a mistake and die, wait to be rezzed, get rezzed by the healer trying to do the best job they can, and as soon as I spawn, before i can do anything, I get ko'd by the currently happening enemy attack. it really is funny, actually. I'm usually "goddamnint! *sigh* i deserved this..."
Oh, okay, I didn't get the irony apparently. x)
Lol I made a raise macro for when I'm running with my fc. it's "Picking shit off the floor wasn't in my job description"
This is so empowering because as a healer I always feel like everyone hates me. I don’t owe them anything
