Advise to non-Stella players

  • I did say her best healing skill needs to get near though. Not the orb one since you gotta drop it.

    Typically though your right there next too your team sorrounding the boss. No reason you should ever really leave your teams side even while putting in that dps

    You would, specially if the boss spams AoE specially in Manic where even just a normal attack hits like a truck and mobs are everywhere.

    Boss spams aoe break that SA mobs spread out vortex them and get back too it. Only boss i can really only see you getting seprated from your team is ep4 acheron boss aka hotwheels and thats becuase of her mechanic with gears that essentially lockon to you and takes like 15k. Thats the one exception imo

    Do Manic frequently with bad PuG and tell me that again.

    I do all the time im 55 been in so many random. After a while i guess everyone knows

    I tried def need me a signature

    Good for you. And I hope I never get to encounter again too. Wishing this kinds toxicity never gets worse, else, we'll be stuck in a great game with suffocating playerbase.

  • As some one who mains the Mystic in Tera, I'm used to being the healer and having other players run from me and not pick up our heals we put on the ground lol. But yea, it can be really annoying. I haven't really bothered to play with others that much yet as my Stella is only level 30 right now and I've been soloing everything but I'm sure I'll need to start teaming up once I get higher leveled (unless Stella can solo up to level 55 then maybe I'll continue to solo lol).


    But yea it is a thankless job some times and its usually always blamed on the healers, so I get the frustrations lol.

  • Some facts about when I party with Stella:


    - Aggression level rises by 300% (scales with each additional Stella)

    - Tendency to facetank increases massively (scales with each additional Stella)

    - Consistently jumps in front of targeted heal meant for another player

    - Assumes purple ball wave is a boss attack and waste stamina trying to dodge it


    That being said, I am very grateful to all the support Stellas out there. Thank you for putting up with a baka Haru like me.

  • Lul
    -Assumes purple ball wave is a boss attack and waste stamina trying to dodge it
    I havent met anyone said about this but i think it's true for players who havent known Stella' skills yet XD

  • I have to say that I haven't had such an encounter yet. I thought this community was actually quite forgiving. I had some really bad plays and thought I'd get called out, but I basically just had friendly chats so far.

    I did have nasty experiences in the past though, being a main healer in almost every game I played. This sounds pretty stupid but if you know you did everything you could possibly have done, just leave the flaming be. More often than not, people do not rely on Stella heals, and that because everyone who plays this game solo for a while has to learn how to cope on their own. I have actually died because I wanted to heal someone who kept running away from me, and I ended up in some nasty crossfire after a stupid chase. I should've put myself first, I didn't, I died. The other guy survived though, so thats good.


    If you keep your cool throughout the game you'll enjoy it much more. If someone complains about your healing, make a joke about it, it might lead to an interesting conversation. Mechanics that involve people running into a heal generally work really porly, that's just something that has always been this way. Voice Chat helps coordinating, but believe me when I say that some people are too stubborn to walk the extra 2cm on the screen to get to the heal.


    But overall, I would like to thank everyone else who has stayed clam if the heal didn't come as planned, didn't rage about a misplay, and keeping a positive attitude.

  • Well nobody ever complained to me but what I would like to say...

    • I can create the red orbs, but you have to collect them yourself.
    • If you are blow 50% HP, pull back I will notice but that skill has a cool down.
    • Why are you running away form the healing?
    • I am not going to create the orbs next to the boss or heal in a dangerous area at all. Please be aware of your surrounding and teammates.

    I had multiple people die today because they were too reckless. I can't heal 24/7 thanks to cooldowns and if there are red orbs present they ignore them and run to the next stage or attack the boss with less then 50% HP. Please, you are not saving time if you die. Yes, it actually annoys me that so many deaths could have been prevented if people would be more careful... I played a Full Support Priest in another game before and many of those would have just let you die back then, if you don't give the supporter the possibility to support. And Stella isn't even full support.

  • I've been there with support classes on other games but I haven't been with Stella to be honest, like someone already said people at Manic parties go mute, the only thing at the chat most of the time are my macros, I have just received some 'thanks' mid dungeon (I have gotten parties nearly dying mid dungeon)/end of the dungeon since people rarely die around me tho that could actually just mean that I have gotten some decent parties. Overall I would say that I enjoy... less? When my party is not dying cause I like to support tho I dont get mad when I can constantly deal DPS, I basically like some kind of mix of my teammates getting hit for me to heal them but not getting hit that much so I can also focus on DPS, kinda weird, tho you couldn't totally say that you can only focus on healing cause CD exists and you only have 3 party healing skills (since Sonic Pulse is self). In conclusion, good advices for non-Stella players, I know it could be way way annoying and sometimes even frustating.

  • These are accurate statistics, proof: experience with another guild member. C25Cloud needs to get closer so I can use all my heals on them like they need for some reason.

  • Worst part. They'll even blame Stella players because some guy intentionally died and quit during boss for xp farming. And they won't even listen.

    I assume this is a common occurrence when you hit 55? I'm currently 49 and not a single toxic person. I'm so used to doing shit alone and doing my best to dodge and I use meds that whenever there's a Stella in my team I forget she can heal, I don't expect her to heal, especially because I'm a Lily, I'm always right next to the boss dishing out damage, by the time Stella's heal reaches me I'll be dead so I always need to dodge as best as I can. If what you describe is common in the last levels I feel sorry for them. I doubt very much they had tons of Stellas as they leveled up, so why the sudden total reliance on Stellas? No reason to blame a Stella for anything. They need to focus on dodging all the time.

    Stella hits the switch on the cranium causing mass destruction where she walks. Honestly, this just adds more truth to her back story if people get so upset with her!

  • Lmao xD I'm glad I'm not the only one. ;x Must be a Haru thing.

  • hey wait i wanna rant too even tho i haven't encountered too many toxic people

    self proclaimed #1 stella na btw


    non-stella players:

    -pls pay attention to ur hp bar, we ARE healing you, you just don't notice it (even my friend says i dont heal when i do)

    -pls dont take orbs for the dmg boost if an ally needs the heal

    -pls take orbs if u need the heal

    -pls dont run in to the boss with 3k/30k hp and blame me for not healing (what's up with this? even if i wasnt healing u should be waiting for ur pots anyway...)

    -pls stop running from me when im trying to heal you

    -pls stop trying to facetank everything when you have a stella, we have delays and cds on heals; stella is there to compensate for you taking unavoidable damage, you shouldn't be running into bombs expecting heals to save you


    stella players:

    -pls stop proving the meme true (ive run with a lot of you in ruin fortress... most of you actually don't heal)

    -pls dont just hold left click, you have like 97 skills

    -your 5 orbs aren't just for healing, you can use them to mob too (another note: pls dont drop the orbs on the opposite side of the map and not tell ppl and expect ppl to know theyre there


    i could go on and on but my point is both sides can improve

  • I feel like Stella heals are a luxury, not a necessity.

    ^This^


    If you can't survive without a Stella, why are you pugging? I'm sure 100% of pug runs doesn't always have a Stella in them. How do you normally survive then? ...That way? Then do that in all your runs!


    If you re-queue until you get a Stella in your pugs, then find a dedicated healer that is willing to heal you and listen to your complaints.
