Well ofc, whos going to let the Deff die to save a scout or some other squishy char for that matter? Thats just @.@?Priesting is not about not letting someone die, but about deciding who's to die first and to keep the priority on others.
Sometimes death is inevitable, but a good priest will save the day by not trying to keep them alive - but by keeping the focus on those that need it the most to keep the party up and running.
One wrong resurrection / focus-heal, may result in your party being totally wiped out (ie: dungeon runs).
E.g.: letting your tank die just to heal a squishy scout who just ran out of buff range for the gazillionth time, resulting in the whole party losing both EV/emp, is not the greatest of ideas.
But just like taunting seems to be from another planet, this too begs for zero understanding within (most) parties.
When you wake up..
I'll be a story in your head,
But that's ok.
We are all stories in the end.
Just make it a good one eh?
Because it was, you know.
It was the best.
