People are pretty ignorant in this game when it comes to healers. One time I was helping a guildie and his PUG finish uldaman. (I was the highest lvl a 47druid i believe). I'm healing specced and my tank form and feral attacks i never upgraded because of the situtation I am in. When I got there the rogue tried to solo everything.. the hunter wouldn't let his pet tank... the pally wouldn't heal anybody.. and the warrior wouldn't tank. They asked ME to tank!!! I flat out refused and explained why but to no avail. So i tanked.. But they kept trying to solo each mob and not grouping and lettign me tank. So when we invetibly wiped everyone blamed me. So I told them fine ill heal. Everyone went back to soloing and no one tanked thus we got wiped again.

I personally believe being a hybrid class is one of the toughest things to do in this game. No matter what you do your wrong and when you do keep the group from wiping you get no gratitude and instead get complaints about not tanking, dps'ing.

I understand where this article is coming from but you really have to play a hybrid class to understand that we are a hybrid class and we have to play like one. In the end the hybrid classes are usually the ones that do all the work and we are also the ones that get no respect.
