Tales of a Healing Bitch.
Ok I decided to stick with Holy for a bit, and see how that pans out. Why a bitch, not so much that I’m playing a girl toon…I’m a bitch, because shit is going to be done my way, and I’m going to be vocal about. DPS acting like an ass, I’m gonna tell them. Tank pulling too much, yeah thats right I’m gonna tell. I’ll tell them nice first, don’t let me get to a second time.
Cause yeah I’m gonna be that bitch.
So I’m level 65, was 64, and last night I once again was doing the Slave Pens, god I’m getting sick of that and Underbog. A Tank was pulling way too much. I told him. I was nice at first, “Please ease up on the pulling I’m running dangeously close to running out of mana, and that’s saying something for a pally.” …No reply, and he kept going. So I let the inner bitch out. ”Listen Mother Fucker, you got two choices pull the whole dungeon, I’ll let you die, then I split, and you can think about it on your walk back…. or you can chill the hell out, and we can finish this just fine” He aplogized and we finished just fine.
In an Underbog run, I got something I’m not quite use to…compliments. As a mage I rarely ever hear..Nice DPS, or great way to sheep the mob. Nope Killing things is what I did, and though I did it well, and nice job once in a while would of been nice. Well someone said to me after a pull that went south, “Nice job healing.” Lets just say that guy was topped off on the heals all the time. He was gonna be alive if I have to Lay some Hand on him, and I do mean in a dirty way.

I need to try this out when I’m healing, especially on my soon to be 80 shaman.
I was truly amazed last night to receive a compliment on my heals. It doesn’t happen very often.

”Listen Mother Fucker, you got two choices pull the whole dungeon, I’ll let you die, then I split, and you can think about it on your walk back…. or you can chill the hell out, and we can finish this just fine”
I think this ought to be macroed. By every healer.

I do the majority of my healing in BG. The few times I have healed an instance have been after much begging by a desperate dps or tank looking for heals. The first ever instance I healed with my Disc Priest was Underbog.
*Wayne’s World wavy lines* Duh-nuh-nuh-nuh-Duh-nuh-nuh-nuh-Duh-nuh-nuh-nuh…….
It was a rainy night in Zangamarsh. I had been queueing up for Alterac Valley and Warsong Gulch, in between glasses of red wine. There I sat, wasting some time fishing up Zangarian Sporefish, getting drunker by the sip. I received a desperate whisper.
DPS:”Heals for Hellfire Ramparts?”
Me:”I’ve never healed an instance before, mainly do battlegrounds.”
DPS:”That’s OK”
Me:”I’ve also drank nearly an entire bottle of red wine. I am what you would call drUnk.”
DPS:”haha That’s Ok.”
Me:”Alrighty then.”
I healed. We lived. And I healed well. What I can remember of it atleast.
Then. I got cocky.
I receive another whisper from another desperate DPS: “Heals 4 UB?”
Me: “Oh sure.”
We get about half way done, and a RL friend of mine gets online. I begin chatting with him inbetween pulls. Then I see a floating yellow exclamation point!! OOOH OOOHH!! MUST CLICK!
I started an escort quest. I was no where near ready. No one was near ready.
We are still doing ok though. I pop a potion and we are set to go. We had another priest healer in this particular group, so they were helping to pick up any slack.
Then things got sticky. The other priest aggroed a mob. Rather than fading, SHE USED FEAR. Needless to say this was quickly followed by a wipe.
I then proceeded to whisper my RL friend to let him know about the group fail. it went somethin to the tune of: “God, this moron priest used FEAR ffs.”
I then realized I posted it to the party chat, rather than a whisper to my friend.
Oops.
That’s when I cut my losses, AND cut myself off and went to bed.
Think I’ll stick to BG.

I think she would rather pour acid in her eyes then read my gaming blog.

That is so true. I hate tanks that don’t pay attention to our mana bars. I let them die, and they say didn’t you see my health bar, and I reply did you see my mana bar?

I’m embarrassed about how much effect those 2 magic words (nice healing) have on my healing. DPS should really learn that it’s the way to make me *their* healing bitch instead of *a* healing bitch. Say it to me just once and you’ll never die again…
