How to play the healer ?

Hello everybody, always played with GWF , but I made a paladin devotion to try to heal and am a little confused .
First, almost all dungeon that i was ( all T1) , most players dies with one hit. So either they are full HP or are dead , so it does not matter if I'm healing or not. Including tanks , when they fail to block or dodge an attack, die almost immediately.
Second, as it takes aim at the target to be healed, i need to be running as a cheap looking for an ally that needs to be healed, which is also running to not be killed , sometimes running away from me too. And when that's not it , I target an ally in the be healed and one companion is in front , getting all the healing as the ally dies.
In all, the game is in need of some adjustments , it is true , but I have faith that everything will get better soon. If someone can indicate a guide to healer would be grateful.
Thanks, cya!

As for people getting one-shot, yes, that is a problem. People have to be really careful and avoid enemy attacks, especially the red, but it certainly isn't the healers fault if they die in one blow.

But they always do XD Especially lately, teleporting, rolling, dashing around, it is crazy XD
If anyone blames healer in current content for dying, well, he likely needs to L2P himself.
It takes whole team effort, crowd control, tanking, right positioning and dodging.
If people don't do that, its not really healers fault.
To add, for the original poster, the heal OP's saving grace is Bond of Virtue. "All allies within 60' (feet) become bonded. Allies who are bonded gain 20% increased healing from all sources. Additionally any time you heal a bonded ally, all bonded allies receive 15% of that healing"
That gives us a huge radius covering the playing field. If anything, you could spam cure wounds on a friendly (or even yourself) from a distance and not have to go chasing after people, as that heal will be shared. Bond of Virtue is a priority spell for devotion OP (when healing). If you aren't using it, then it's like missing the bread for the butter.
For some reason if players keep running away from you (your radius), as in not a constructive way (such as running ahead), then that really is their own problem to deal with.
I have some tips here.. but do browse the Paladin forum, there is good info around those parts.

Against one shots Aura of Life can help, it just ressurect whoever gets killed. Just be prepared to put a portable altar under their feet before the next fight, because most players seem to forget about revive sickness. However, the best solution would be if people didn't stand in red areas, it's really not your fault if they don't dodge out of the way, even if most people like to play the blame game that way.
I have a Devotion Pally the majority of that forum is devoted to prot so most of us devotion are having a hard time knowing what works and what doesn't
Right now you have to pick through the paladin section. There is information out there, albeit not as clear cut since there is no magical guide telling people how to play a devotion OP. Though enough tips and helpful info to build upon your own play style.
