Do you thank your healer, /v/?

Those fluid dynamics equations are giving me bad memories
>ITT: Fucktards who are too young the holy trinity was actually Tank, Healer, CC/SUPPORT
I.e. warrior/cleric/enchanter in Everquest.

The hardest thing to learn as a healer, is to know when not to heal.
Your instinct is to heal when someone goes low, but to do that puts too much threat on you since the heals are less effective on the squishy rogues.
A truly masterful healer, is the one that lets the rogue die when the rogue messes up.
Whenever a rogue dies in your party you should thank your healer, and probably insult the rogue desu.

I love this image. It reeks of salty DPS.

Why can't people just admit it takes an actual team to do anything right.

>thanking someone for doing their job
I don't thank dps for hitting shit with a sword, it's expected.
As someone who's never really participated enough in MMOs to see this in action, it seems more like a hierarchy than a trinity. DPS is the most important class since they're the ones directly contributing to the objective, while tank and healer are secondary classes that are just there to keep the DPS alive long enough to complete the objective. Of course this is assuming that the majority of the co-operative missions are just "kill the things and you win". If big-party quests were more varied I could see some credibility to the claim that the classes are equally important

Yet the DPS classes are the only ones you can remove from the party and clear the instance.

That wasn't the case early on with mmos. People always wanted more tanks and healers. It changed up when developers started adding enrage/overwhelming damage mechanics that forced groups to adjust and NEED dps.

and supports, damn.
I remember when Ragnaros first fell down in WoW, the original raiding guild was pissed off that it forced its members to all roll a ton of combat rogues to beat a certain mechanic. They liked that their buddies were playing an excess of healers and such.

who does the damage? serious question.
>>320222306
Whoever comes along. Warriors themselves are the ones who do any dps from those 3. Otherwise there was a ton of classes to fit in for roles. Hell sometimes it was a quadrinity because people always loved to have Monks as pullers in that game.
>tfw want to play a healer but none of the populated MMOs out right now seem fun
the trick is thatevery role is smashing 3-4 buttons at set times so arguing which is harder is retarded

>Using outdated art
This isn't the 70's anymore.
I thank anyone that's being helpful because it's rare
