/Rant: Shadow doesn’t make you a bad healer.

Bad healing makes you a bad healer.

Every time I’m leveling as shadow, this debate never fails to come up. No matter who initiates whispers looking for heals, the other person inevitably asks me “what spec are u”. Hey, hey, #1 – “u” is a letter, “you” is a word. And add a question mark when you’re asking me a question because on the off-chance that I share your cognitive shortcomings, I might not know it’s a question.

/1 [IgnorantTankNoob]: lf healz for nexus then g2g
[To IgnorantTankNoob]: I’ll come.
[From IgnorantTankNoob]: what spec r u
[To IgnorantTankNoob]: Shadow.
[From IgnorantTankNoob]: were looking for healz dps is full
[To IgnorantTankNoob]: I know. I’m offering to heal it. I did it yesterday.
[From IgnorantTankNoob]: but ur shadow
[To IgnorantTankNoob]: Forget it. GL with your run.

And next time you vet your healers by asking what spec they are, don’t make it sound like I have to provide a resume of my healing experience. Because, trust me, I have enough to make you sit in front of your screen for the next 50 days as we go through all of it and how each experience made me a better healer.

[From IgnorantTankNoob]: hey u wanna heal nexus
[From IgnorantTankNoob]: our healer left
[To IgnorantTank Noob]: Oh, sorry, I’m shadow. I can’t heal.

Good day, sir.
