Res Me!...res Him!

I posted another gripe earlier but now I'm on a roll. This is what I want everyone who has ever been in a squad to know about being a Cleric. When we're in squad with a boss with a mean aoe and someone dies, the cleric has to ask themselves a question: "If I stop healing my tank/tankS will they die leading to the death of everyone else in the party?"
Sometimes the answer to that doesn't work in favor of the dead squad member. So the rest of the squad telling me to "RES HIM" isn't going to help anyone. I know I can res him...AND I DECIDED AGAINST IT. Usually when I do this I will offer to come through with them again in another squad so they can get the boss they need. I'm not a jerk about it.
If everyone is so concerned about it here's what you do:
1. Everyone but the ONE REAL TANK get out of range of the aoe so you don't slow me getting to the dead party member by making YOURSELF part of the problem and putting me in a position to try and keep YOU from dying.
2. Everyone but the ONE REAL TANK stop attacking the boss and get out of the way so you don't risk taking aggro and making me heal 2 people instead of one.
Once I IH stack the ONE REAL TANK to a point I know he will live for a while without me, I will res the down party member. Spamming "RES HIM" in the squad chat
DOESN'T
HELP
ME
OR
HIM!
Also, If things go bad and party members start dying if you want to help and you're dead don't tell me to res you. If there are multiple dead on the field what you need to say is whether you need that boss or not. That way if you DO I will know to work on resing you FIRST and if you don't need that boss it's no big deal. And it IS no big deal.
If you don't need that boss WHY ARE YOU DEMANDING TO BE RESED!?! Would it kill you (no pun intended) to put others in the party before yourself? Clerics do it all the time.

If someone dies at boss the barb should Turtle (Invoke the Spirit) so the cleric could rez the dead party member (or have the mystic put a rez buff on u b:chuckle)0

The repeated shouting is because you're not acknowledging them and/or telling them this rant.
Because a large number of clerics really are that bad at playing that they've not even noticed the dead squad member.0 -
If the other party members are also asking you to rez, then that means they will handle their own health for the few seconds it takes to rez them. It looks as though you are talking about wyrv (based off your level), no offense but there is nothing your level that requires such intense healing that people should be missing the entire boss. They shouldn't have to communicate to you whether or not they need the boss, always assume they do and do your best to revive the person. Get the tank up to a good IH stack, (and use wellspring/SoR if you need to to quickly put their health back up) and then start rezzing. Yes, that means their health could dip dangerously close to charm tick territory but that's what wellspring/SoR are there for. Just cast that after you rez and resume your IH stack. I realize lots of squads are pretty bossy and annoying. And it's super annoying if someone shouts rez the second that they go down. But if you choose not to rez them all together, then people are going to complain, as they should. No one wants to rerun an entire instance because the cleric wouldn't rez them. Part of your job in squad is to rez people who die, not just keep the tank alive. Start channeling just after an aoe and you should have enough time to cast it just a little before the next one typically. That'll keep your other party members alive. Sorry but it's all about timing.Vitenka - Dreamweaver wrote: »The repeated shouting is because you're not acknowledging them and/or telling them this rant.

No, most clerics know the person is dead. They are either like this one and see it and choose not to rez altogether or will get to it when they have an opening. Shouting Rez usually makes people take longer to get you up because you're irritating them. I know clerics that if people shouted that at them, they would not get a rez at all. Or they would rez you but not buff you, heal you. Some people just leave if people are too bossy. I personally wouldn't do any of those things, as long as you're doing your job I'll do mine. Nobody said we have to like each other. But you can bet I've made a mental note of you and won't be running with you in the future.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Stop making these damn threads about clerics.
It's always someone coming in explaining how so and so always happens to the innocent, perfect cleric, because clerics never have faults right?
**** happens. Get over it.1. Everyone but the ONE REAL TANK get out of range of the aoe so you don't slow me getting to the dead party member by making YOURSELF part of the problem and putting me in a position to try and keep YOU from dying.
2. Everyone but the ONE REAL TANK stop attacking the boss and get out of the way so you don't risk taking aggro and making me heal 2 people instead of one.
Ok, this is legit. But that's a general thing and has nothing to do with a cleric and has more to do with squad safety as a whole.
People panic. Saying "res him" in squad chat doesn't help, but neither does it hurt anyone.
Get into their shoes. They don't who you are and have no idea what you're actually doing, but when they see a cleric seemingly do nothing except continue like nothing happened...well you get the idea. They're just caring about a fellow squad member and no one wants him to miss out on a boss he needs.
Also you're level 68. BH51 is where everyone starts learning about AoEs (even though Farren has one in BH39, his isn't much of a problem as Wyvern's).
And also don't assume they are "yelling' or "being rude".
Do you really expect someone to get down on their knees to type out an entire polite sentence while they are tanking Rankar and Fushma walks past?[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

I disagree here. You don't' see most clerics yell DD, shoot an arrow! Or other such stuff. Don't tell them what to do just because you don't them. Don't assume someone else doesn't know how to play their class just because you don't know them. Give them a chance like they gave you a chance by squadding with you in the first place instead of doing the friends/guildies only. Like you said, put yourself in someone else's shoes. IF all you ever hear every time you join a squad is instructions on how to play your class just because people don't trust you to do a decent job right off the bat before you've made a single mistake, you're going to get annoyed. That's why there is so many threads about it. And yes saying "rez him," does hurt. It's annoying to hear it every time you squad with randoms for years. It gets old. You don't have to type an entire sentence but you don't have to keep yelling rez or heal either. Just don't say instructions at all unless the person totally fails. Also, if you're already dead its not like your doing anything else, you might as well add as pls. It does wonders and takes only a half second more.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Keep in mind around level 68, barb only got 2 sparks and you cant use gold's tea or white tea. Chances of barb having chi to invoke and hold aggo is slim.0 -
When you're playing the cleric of the squad and someone dies, unless they get 1 shot, that means you can heal them, there aint no excuse to not healing someone unless you're having to fully stack IH and use wellspring just to keep the tank alive which really shouldn't be the case.
If you're deciding against resing someone because you think the tank will die, then either you or the tank fails at there job, or both, a thing that soooo many clerics fail to realize, is that you only need 5 stacks of IH over 15 seconds, meaning by the time you've casted IH 5 times, that leaves you 8 seconds to twiddle your thumbs believe it or not, which gives you plenty of time to res that dead guy and get back to that 5 stack heal, also if they are all shouting res him like you said, if the boss is using aoe's, then they should either begin to pot the damage in them 8 seconds of res time, or run the hell away whilst you do it, if they don't, then you will know you've gained a fail squad.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

...or the most common reason - the squishy sin took aggro AGAIN. And in that case I wont have time to IH them before they are dead. As I said in a similar post, when the sin takes aggro you spam IH the tank, then you'll have time to res the sin then the tank takes aggro back.0 -
@VenusArmani Thanks for the response. I find it interesting that your assumption is that I was not doing my job. Even the best cleric can't keep an impulsive squad who falls into a false sense of security that just because there is a cleric in the squad they can do any cockamamie thing they like. The truth is when only the cleric knows they're job and everyone else is being unnecessarily reckless choices have to be made and it's usually the Cleric that has to make them.
For instance, we had a barb that acted like a magic user the whole time (running from mobs...staying at the back) except when we got to wyv. Then; without waiting form me to stack him, he just rushed in without checking if everyone was ready. The Mystic we had sat there with half his hp gone after an aoe waiting to be healed or something while I tried to keep that impulsive barb alive. Needless to say with the next aoe he died and he is the character in question. He didn't even cast a res bubble on himself. He died because he didn't take responsibility for his own life and his own ability to heal himself. One of the sins openly declared that they were suicidal. To her credit when she died she didn't blame me.
We as Clerics can only take responsibility for the lives we lose when EVERYONE is doing they're part. If they're not...well, I'm a Cleric not the squads mother.
As for hoping you never end up in squad with me; I assure you, the feeling is mutual.0 -
At that level most should know there class well enough to know what to do when a situation turns bad. I've ran with some clerics who PL'd themselves to high levels than began asking questions. Yesterday I was in an FC with a cleric. And I was explaining to the new fc runner in pm's what he should do. He was a sin like myself. Than the cleric pm's me saying "Do I just BB every time". Yes I chuckled but the kind of person I am I chose not to bash on them but to help them instead.
I explained for each area what the tank and squad would/should do and for him to get ready. During the big pull in the big room the cleric didn't IH the tank enough so I asked him squad if he could stack it a few more times. He only cast it twice. Well the tank as impatiently as he was took off and started pulling. About 10seconds into the second group his health started to drop rapidly(Barb only had 9k hp buffed at level 94). So the cleric in squad said "Go ahead and bring what you have to me and I'll BB now". That was a smart decision on the clerics part because he watched his health. That is a key thing for most clerics to understand. To have what I call the healers eye.
Not only do you want to watch the battle field and squad placement but to watch there health bars for debuffs that need to be purified ect. Anyway the tank listened and instead of full pull it was only half. Once he pulled the other half the cleric had BB up and was ready as the tank pulled to the center. The bm didn't wait for him to get to the center and instead of popping his stun he popped HF and died immediately. I mean that mob swallowed him up. The bm than started to scream rez me before you kill them. About every 2 seconds the bm was like rez me..rez me..rez me. The cleric explained that because of his decision to jump the gun on the group of mobs and not wait for BB range that he would have to wait a moment. Cleric stacked IH on the tank about 5-6 times and rezzed the BM than BB'd for the kill.
I say not all clerics are bad. Those you see not doing what they're supposed to, don't bash them but instead help them. Saves posts like these from getting flamed horribly. I am still friends with that cleric and he runs FC with us all the time now. Turned out to be one of the best clerics I 've seen yet and he's 95 now.
Also..if all else fails...bring a mystic with you. I level with one. She's my wife. Best mystic I've seen on this server. She takes the time to study her class as some choose not to. So if you're weary about taking a mystic into a squad. Don't be. That rez buff will save squad wipes. Good luck and happy gaming all! b:victory0 -
@RenzaIf you're deciding against resing someone because you think the tank will die, then either you or the tank fails at there job, or both, a thing that soooo many clerics fail to realize, is that you only need 5 stacks of IH over 15 seconds, meaning by the time you've casted IH 5 times, that leaves you 8 seconds to twiddle your thumbs believe it or not, which gives you plenty of time to res that dead guy and get back to that 5 stack heal
Thank you VERY MUCH. I didn't know that. That is very helpful. This is my first real character.0 -

In OP's defence, I've been in bh51 squads as my cleric with barbs still wearing their lv30 rank gear or white NPC gear. Not fun to heal, and they're getting more and more common with all the FC selling going on. If you're with one of those and 4 sins/BMs, also with crapy gear, keeping everyone alive gets kind of challenging, especially with sins that lose 75+% HP from one rank/wyvern aoe but still think they're too pro to just back off and use a bow. When those same sins then whine for a res after they grabbed agro and got oneshot, I get VERY tempted to just not res them until the boss is nearly dead. Spares me a lot of trouble.
I understand that people need the boss and want a res, but unless the boss is almost dead when you go down, give the cleric a minute to stack the tank properly, save anyone else that needs saving, and channel res. There's no rush. If they still don't show any signs of resing you after the situation has stabilized, then you can ask ONCE for a res. Spamming chat will only annoy everyone.
P.S.: as a cleric, if there's several people to res, I tend to res whiners last. Just fyi.0 -

QFT ^^
A few days ago I was healing in bh 59 ( 79 cleric ) and had a tank with TT gear.
Funny thing is, his hp kept dropping very fast with mobs, so I check his gear and surprise surprise.... no magic defense ornaments ( only strength and Vit ones ).
So I asked him why wasn't he wearing any mag def ornaments and he said he didn't need them as he was going to re-stat later in game for DPS ( say what??? ).
Because of his bad gear options ( and some aggro ping-pong ) 3 squad members died cause I didn't heal in time ( although the barb stayed alive the whole run ).
So, sometimes, no matter how hard you try, there's no way you can keep the whole squad alive because you can't decide on ppl's gear ( and some don't listen to advice anyway )0 -

I'm pretty sure Venus was directing that 'feeling' at the person s/he quoted not you ijs. (The person Venus quoted was on the same server). Either that or s/he was directing that at some anonymous person s/he was making an example of.
And Marcia and Venus, you are on different freaking servers so I dont know wtf you're talking about with 'never squadding with you'. -______-
You were the right, it wasn't directed at her in specific. XD Or even Vitenka. It wasn't directed at anyone, it was directed at theoretical person I had already been talking about when I talked about the general bossiness of squads. I explained a random situation where if someone was bossy, that wouldn't stop me from doing my job in the squad. Then I said, I would just make note of that persons attitude and not squad with them again. It wasn't directed at one particular person. In fact, I was agreeing with Marcia about the point she was implying of how annoying it is to get told rez the second somebody drops. I've been lurking these forums long enough to know if someone is on a different server, lol.MarciaZee - Raging Tide wrote: »Sometimes the answer to that doesn't work in favor of the dead squad member.

As for "assuming" that you were in the wrong Marcia, this part of your qoute is what I was referring to. You said you usually go through with the person again so they can get the boss they needed. That implies that this has happened more than once. So much so that you acutal have a usual course of action. Now, it could have been that you were just running into a whole lot of fail. But more than likely there was something you were overlooking that was causing it to happen to you so much that you had to develop a system. Renza figured it out, you weren't doing it because you didn't realize the thing about the IH stack. Being that you only need to do it 5 times and after that you have a few seconds to debuff/attack/rez whatever it is you need to get done. I figured you knew that and actually thought it might have been your timing was off. Since I figured most clerics know about the IH stack, but I guess that's a more common mistake than I realized.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Hm I agree with the OP here. Having a level 100 cleric myself I'm pretty annoyed with people who yell at me for res. If I didn't res you yet, then I'm busy keeping the rest alive. Let me get the tank or whoever has agro safe and I'll res you.
Yelling at me doesn't do anything but annoy me and hey, I'm not telling you to do your job, eh? I know what I'm doing there...

@VenusArmani I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. Yea I didn't know about the stacking thing. Now that I do, it should help a lot. As far as going through again that's something I tend to offer no matter whose fault it is that someone dies. What was said about knowing your squad is very true. The truth is, there are times I KNOW I'm not in a good squad but my attitude is to try and make it work and that it's part of the challenge. There are also times when I'm trying to get the strategy set for the needs of our particular squad and just no one listens. I'm not trying to run things but when I can see there are holes in our squad they need to be compensated for by strategy.
Honestly, I tend to LOVE smaller squads. Sometimes the less people there are the better it goes: better communication, less stealing aggro, people tend to look out for their team mates more...better all around. Thanks for your response.
@Asgardeus It is annoying when they do that isn't it! As for mystics, I usually LOVE working with them. They tend to make my life easier but yea, when they're no help they're not different then any other class.0 -
I moonlight on many lowbies when bored and two days ago I ran into a very similiar situation in my BH51 squad. Squad makeup was two venos (one with walker) bm sin cleric archer. The BM was set to tank. I was on a veno.
We hit rankar and the second veno dies to aoe. The sin then takes aggro and dies as well. The BM refuses to physical marrow and is taking quite a bit of damage and so the cleric is stuck as the veno and sin scream "REZ HIM" on the ground. The archer hangs back and I spam heal pet in case the BM dies and I end up having to tank a few seconds.
The cleric I could see was clearly thinking through how she could possibly rez the others while keeping the BM up as when she halted IH stack for a few seconds his HP would half quickly. In the end she finally obeyed the others and went to rez the sin, causing the BM to die within a few seconds followed swiftly by my pet and the squad to wipe.
Moral:
Always do what's in the best interest of the squad as a whole, not individuals. The only smart thing to do here would have been to have the BM kite the boss so the cleric could rez the rest, or to reset the boss entirely. To others: Sometimes it's hard to talk much/respond while spam healing.
Mathematically speaking: A stack of 5 IHs gives you 7 seconds of continuous 5 stack, before decaying to 4 for 2 more seconds. At the end of 10 seconds you will probably need to start stacking again.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -

I change to -chan gear (-72% chan FTW) and spam AOE heal or raise the BB if the aggro starts to change too much. If the typical 4k- HP nub sin decides to spark and go all out, and dies, I dont ressu him (serves him right b:laugh), if the party starts to blame me, I leave.
Been playing my cleric for nearly three years, dont need a newcomer to come and tell me how to play my main, if you die and you are not the barb/ main tank, is your own fault, stop blaming clerics for everything, and make one yourself if you know so much about them. b:bye0 -

or stack IH until you have 3 spark ready, if the tank of the moment don't kill the boss, then use wings of protection on him 3 spark and res the tank then get back to IH stack.
If the tank of the moment is intelligent, he will 3 spark when the wings of protection goes off giving you time to target again and heal.
Making everyone happy, and you ignoring sq chat, has you would have res him any way.
To all the other class out there, slow down on coffee and Red bull please. There's not aoe res yet ![SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -

Being a cleric myself what bugs me is people telling me what to do. I can handle my class very well thank you been playing it for over 2 yrs now. I have lv 11 rez so dont worry you wont loose exp but if I die and dont have a guardian scroll guess what I loose exp that is so not fair in this game. Once a cleric has lvl 11 rez he/she should not loose exp if in a squad. And if people would stop playing aoe tag all the time the cleric could do their job better. I always ask who is going to be the tank and i focus on them if you take aoe from tank and die dont scream at me saying its my fault. And yes with all these hyper babies learn your class.............0

The only thing Fuzzy took away from reading all this was that 99.999% of people don't carry a rez scroll. Guess the panda already knew this, but it never ceases to make Fuzzy confused. b:surrender0
