Any chance of getting a cleric only healer pull option? I use my shaman/druid for dps/utility and not healing.

I can't watch my tank's mana/endurance, unless I also watch my bard's, which means I stop pulling for about 40 minutes because he doesn't sit to med when constantly out of mana.
If my tank (SK or Paladin) dies, then I'm off to pull whether they are ready or not. Paladins are not classified as "healers" even if they are the only healer in the group.

Is it possible to review this and add in an option for "Healer+Tank" or add Paladin to the list of healers?

We might possibly expand the group watch options - many/most folks use their tank to pull, so it hasn't come up before.

Yes, paladins are not healers - just like how a warrior using bandages is not a healer, or a beastlord, or a ranger, or a necro/SK (they have a health transfer) :p so no, we won't be adding paladins to healers

but a tank option sounds reasonable, however, in the meantime (because not a priority atm) - it might be worthwhile pulling with your tank, or dealing with your bard since your bard is the issue - not lack of group watch options

I've been having CWTN plugins handle pulling, because KissAssist is borderline autistic at times. WTB MQ2Pal (and until then, I rotate between /mac kissassist pullertank and one of my MQ2_____ characters to pull, depending on the zone/situation).
 
Question: Group Watch More Class Options

I know this doesn't make sense but checking to see if in the Pulling option if Tank, or DPS can be added to this option; or a combination of both?

Thanks

no, we currently don't have any plans on changing the group watch options. It may or may happen when we do a revamp/rework of the UI, but not currently at this time. There are 16 classes. We don't currently plan on having a full al la carte of all 16 classes

You post stuff here all the time, and i link the sticky with the "how to ask for help". It would benefit you immensely by giving a use case and what your problem is (perceived or actual), rather than trying to provide a solution, because this is something that has been only asked a small handful of times, and almost every time the "proposed solution" doesn't even fix what the actual scenario is.

but some person wants "i only want druids to be watched on tuesdays" or "i only want 1 cleric to be watched, the other cleric i want to be ignored" - that's not something we're going to do either =p

sorry sic, I must have missed the "How to Ask for Help" by all means this wasn't or isn't intentional to gain attention.

apologies once again

it isn't a "you need to apologize" it is a "if you ask questions in this way and i answer them as delivered, you're going to be a whole lot of simple "no's" it also shifts the mental burdon on me to try and find the need behind the need/want/ask, which is often not what is being put on the screen. Just askin you to help me help you. No one is upset
