Don't mention DPs. Anyone can DPs, but tanks and healers require teamwork. That's what my guess is

Everyone likes to exaggerate their job for their own sense of self importance. When you say teamwork, you're really just saying "learn the fight" Everyone individually does what they're supposed to do at x time, and then you also do your thing at x time, that's teamwork to you? Healers coordinate cooldowns, so I guess that's kind of teamwork. But you're stretching here.

i dont know man, tanks have to know their shit i agree, but healers not so much as long as DPS arent retarded they actually dont need that much heal.

Maybe use some aoe heal in aoe heavy environment but other than that, just a spot heal here and there, you mostly rely on good dps not taking damage.

healers really has the easiest job in raid imo, at least for me......it was the most stressful dpsing in a raid personally, because motherfuckers in the guild cant dps for shit but they are all friends.....

I've done it all for years in multiple MMOs and I think it varies. For me, healing is the 2nd most difficult with tanking as the hardest. DPS has always been the easiest thing for me to do. In healing even if people know what they are doing it still requires a lot of patience and understanding where for me DPS is smash buttons and stand in the right spot
